JAIL VANDALISM, Consultants' final report on operations Commissioners received a written report last week from James Rowenhorst and Gary Bowker, Correctional Consultants, who conducted a post-occupancy monitoring visit to the Cass County Jail because of inmate vandalism in the new facility. Mr. Rowenhorst was present today to discuss the final report, and he reviewed the observations, findings and recommendations listed in the report. Mr. Rowenhorst said Cass County still has one of the best jails in the country, and it is not unusual for new jails to have a few problems after opening. He indicated many jails experience at least some difficulties in implementing the concept of direct supervision. Therefore, the jail administration and supervisors must closely monitor operations and have exceptionally good communication in order to react quickly to any problems as they arise.
