I have read this story in full. It also seeks to determine whether Harris County Officials do enough to protect inmates. This investigation is a blessing.

my fiance was there for a month. he said it was worse than prison. I had a fairly pleasant time when visiting for visitation though. They were always really nice to me and helpful. Guess they have to appear nice on the outside to cover up what they really do. figures.
