    Lightbulb Sheriff Tom Knight cited for violating Florida's jail standards

    Knight said that if he can’t figure out what to do, then his only option is to build a $100 million jail, even though arrests are decreasing.

    Journalism can never be silent: that is its greatest virtue and its greatest fault. It must speak, and speak immediately, while the echoes of wonder, the claims of triumph and the signs of horror are still in the air.

    • Switching out old, dirty and deteriorating mattresses for new clean mattresses is a basic management 101 skill. Those ultra thin mattresses are dirt cheap, especially when they are purchased in bulk.
      .
    • And mixing handicapped prisoners in with normal inmates is another management 101 skill.

    At least Knight was "cited" as a permanent record of how not to run a jail.

    The only thing Knight detests more than SSO corrections is SSO court services. However, Knight loves patrol because it has glittery red and blue lights that attracts the public's attention, which then attracts public attention to Knight himself, which he loves because he is in love with himself, of course. LOL

    That might be true, however, court services has never caused Knight to get written up by the State for violating basic human rights standards ----- sooooo corrections might be Knight's new "red-headed basturd hate child" that he is trying to to abort. Rest assured that Knight will NEVER accept responsibility, but he will blame someone else. In Knight's world, accountability (shit) rolls downhill and not uphill.

    Jail supervisors

    FMJS inspection is once a year. Inspecting mattresses and pillows is a basic part of the inspection. This is simply laziness on the part of Lt's who should have removed all torn mattresses. ,The Lt's and Sgt are so lazy and useless. They are to busy hiding instead of doing their job. Don't get me started on our jail supervisors right up to major. All talk, no work!

    Isn't that the Knightmare way? Deny, deny, deny and fake it till you make it until something goes wrong where you then shovel the $hit down the mountain until it lands on the hard working deputies at the bottom of the valley? The entire administration is useless as they are conniving.
