Judge places jail on probation

Full story: Djournal.com

If they'll just implement a contract with a medical professional, they can avoid exposing taxpayers to this kind of unnecessary liability. That's what's so upsetting.

Everyone that works for the Prentiss county jail should have at least one of their loved ones locked behind those bars so that something is done about how they house the inmates that's already there. It's ashamed how they make them survive in there. My husband is currently in there and I received a call from him today stating the fact he has not been issued a bath towel, soap, blankets or a bed. And to top things off he informs me of staff going around in the jail. That's ashamed. I immediately packed some items that could be taken down there to him and two jailers directed as to where i could drop the items off and at the final drop off location the third jailer tells me I can only drop off at a certain time. If that's a true statement why is not posted online where the property list is posted along with visitation hours? And why did two jailers direct me to where I could drop the items off if it was after hours?
Let me have the pleasure of answering these questions for you. The third jailer was either lazy or he's simply selfish. And acting so rudely it will come back on him. When you do wrong, wrong will follow you. If they are so over crowded and they don't enough hygiene items to issue to the inmates they sure as hell should allow someone to bring them to the inmate if need be. So such actions have drawn me to take the time to write this and contact the next man in line with authority to take actions.

I would like to let people know that if you have a teenage boy or girl in prentiss county, be aware that the court system there says its okay for a person to buy alcohol and serve it to a minor, "they don't have to drink it".....A judge in prentiss county court actually said this!!! To my disbelief I had to ask again...Yes, that is what she said.
No reprimand what so ever to the person who purchased and supplied the alcohol( and lives in prentiss county where this occured). Just to the underage drinkers. They were given a lecture. How ironic in a DRY COUNTY.
It was also okay for the person who provided alcohol, to take a vehicle without permission to drive it and do damage to the vehicle. That's totally okay in prentiss county. You don't even have to pay for the damages.
Oh yes did I mention this person works for prentiss county..... I guess it's okay if you "KNOW" people. Atleast it is in Prentiss County. Parents Be Aware!!!!!!!
Watch carefully who your kids hang around with.
Those with Authority can contribute to their delinquency without facing any kind of punishment.
They can also have House Parties in prentiss county with minors attending (some as young as 15) and nothing is done to stop it.

Why can a person get away with murder in Tippah county? The law is to busy try in to find some drinking a beer and abusing and harressing young people.

I have a fiance in the Prentiss County Jail and he has been there for almost seven weeks and all I can say is If something doesnt be done about this jail here, I believe that the inmates will soon start getting so sick because of the filth and the horrible treatment that they are going thru, their lives ARE AT STAKE!!!!!!!!!!

I think someone needs to get the F.B.I out to the jail. some thing needs to be done.....this is not right....they treat ppl wrong in the jail because they want u to be a snitch....if not then they treat u wrong......also when ppl know to much they do things to them.....something has to be done

my friend was murdered and they still haven't made ANY arrests and it has been a month. I'm sure if the FBI got involved in any aspect of Ripley,MS or surrounding areas it would be a great improvment for the public, especially for people who think they are above the laws that they were sworn in to uphold!!!
