I love Sheriff Joe, but putting an american flag in their cells was just inviting trouble
They could have tied them together and made a rope, for example.
A jail cell should have ONLY what the need to survive, and books to keep them quiet
The flags in the cells are decals approx. 3X5 inches. They are not cloth, plastic, etc.
Out of the approx. 8900 prisoners in our jail system, only a very few have ever defaced the flags. And remember, we are constantly getting new prisoners every day.
Many of the prisoners are in fact somewhat patriotic.
A rope? What would you do with a rope? you ever been to Maricopa county? Its very flat. You don’t need a rope to escape a one story building. Things are spread OUT, not up.
He got it, now they get it, lesson learned.
