Seems like Sheriff Barton has some employees he needs to look into. How else can drugs get in?
Might take a closer look at the employees inside the jail. I had a relative work there for a short time and you would be amazed at the stories she could tell.
Need to be looking at the workers how else are they getting in
Well the people they arrest are pretty smart and brag about how they slipped them in to all their so called buddies
If he looked into who was working both days. He might can pin point about where they come from. He needs to get control over his crew.. the drugs didn’t just fall out of the ceiling. Take a good look at who was there and who you had working inside the laundry room, kitchen, out on garbage pickup even car washing. Somebody needs to do something. You aren’t even safe in jail.
