On Monday, June 3, members of the DeKalb County Board of Commissioners (BOC) toured the DeKalb County Jail to see firsthand the environment, meet with key service providers and engage in a Q&A in the wake of recent news and media surrounding the treatment and conditions within the jail. In 2018 the DeKalb County Jail processed over 34,000 inmates. The BOC was present to ensure the DeKalb County Jail has the resources needed to function properly and that the rights and dignity of all individuals within the jail is not compromised.
