According to "Dorchester County might lease jail<" ”The Dorchester County center occasionally holds more than 300 inmates in a facility built for half that number. The building is not up to code, has security problems and safety issues. The needs are critical, according to architects who recently reviewed the center. The legal liability alarms council.”

We wonder how many of the Dorchester County inmates are convicts and how many are incarcerated because they are in arrears on their child support obligations and lack the ability to address the debt. We also wonder how all the "fines" and "fees" accessed against "Deadbeat Dads" are being utilized and how much these revenues total. And until these questions are answered, we do not think that there is any point in discussing building a new jail, much less discussing how the construction and operation of that new jail is going to be financed.
