No Changes At Pike County Detention Center
KENTUCKY....
Pike Jailer Rodney Scott says, after jailers at the Pike County Detention Center started monitoring calls made by inmates, officials discovered early last week that Linda Cornette, 60, and Courtney Bartley, 22, were placing drugs through a hole in the facility wall where inmates had pulled loose the caulk in order to bore the hole. Scott says, though arrests have been made and the plot uncovered, he sees no real means to enact a change in policy at the jail, saying that he and his staff can only keep a closer eye on the inmates.
