Sullivan County Commissioner Hershel Glover Has Decided To Move His Resolution Of Charging County Inmates To Pay To Stay At The County Lockup, To Next Month. The Program Would Force Inmates Staying In Jail Longer Than 24 Hours To Pay $35 Dollars A Day. Sheriff Jeff Cassidy Is Opposed To The Idea. He Told Newschannel 11 That He Understands The Concept But Says Charging The Fees Could Result In Higher Recidivism, Leading Those Inmates Back To Jail…..
The Fees Would Mean An Inmate Would Have To Pay Over A $1,000 A Month.
