Background on county jail contracts

By Josh Sweigart | Friday, January 8, 2010, 10:16 AM

After recent stories broke about more than $1 million Butler County may save by bidding out work at the county jails, and a settlement agreement with Resolutions, Community Solutions, a couple people asked me why we haven’t looked into this issue more.

The answer is: We have.

Here is a series of blog posts I did walking readers through an investigation into the agency that provides services at the county jails, and the no-bid work they did on the Court Street jail. The resulting stories can be accessed here and here.

Is there more to this issue that you think needs to be explored?

So what’s new. Corruption is everywhere, even when it come to cleaning toilets.
