I am posting this here as the Facebook post could be taken down post facto. I live here in Portland and I was not aware that our county jail was not accepting new inmates.
This story apparently has not been picked up by the local media. The Facebook post is only 20 minutes old.
The only ting I could find online is a link to a business he started 4 months ago in Appleton Maine which is about an hour up the cost from Portland.

And why is their jail “closed”? Never heard of that before. Not as if Portland has been depopulated.
Do they have enough $ for drag queen story hour? Housing illegals? State operated drug dens?

My guess is that the jail is run by the sheriff and s/he is probably an uber lib karen who is making decisions above his or her paygrade. These people are not being processed through the system where the Assistant DA makes a bail recommendation. They are just being ejected back on the streets.

WHy would not locking up criminals jeopardize public safety? I thought the Statist leaders were in favor of no jails and defund the police?.
