This town really needs to close that place down. seriously with all the “hardcore” offenders in there……did the city even consider there are children in this town and beje has played host to many of them. just wait one day something will happen and ill be the person standing back saying “I TOLD YOU SO!”
I ran from there also it was as easy as walking out the door and walking away from the building
some of those people are way too hardcore criminal to be in such a program. attempted murder? geez, they should be no where near mason city civilian population.
Rough year for BJ, seems there system isn’t working out very well. To much freedom I’m afraid. I know this is supposed to be for these people to transition back ito society, but seems most of these people look at it as an easy way to get back out into society ahead of schedule.
Maybe time to rethink this system, possibly they need electronic trackers or something.
Are you kidding me??? Whos running security out there? They need to be fired!! and York should have been in prison!
