Mace is excessively used to the point that your eyes burn just from being inside. I have a huge concern about the amount of men that are in the women's area. There is no need to have 3-4 men "guarding". Mr.Rodriguez in particular clearly has emotional issues he enjoys taking out on the women. It's obvious he enjoys the job because he can exert control. He is not there because he believes in rehabilitation. His actions I witnessed for a short period of time made me physically sick. It was no shock to me to learn that a woman died there not too long ago, due to being ignored and treated as a burden. Shame on you Moore county. They can't even be bothered to pick up a phone let alone provide basic life saving medical care. There were a very small amount of officers who appeared to actually be making a difference in people's life, such as Mr.Frye. It's evident he genuinely cares about recovery and how he can help others. However, any efforts are waisted at this facility. I would legitimately rather go to Alcatraz or Guantanamo than Moore County.

They change up the security procedures all the time (sometimes your forced to remove your hoodie/shoes/ & empty your pockets) & other times your not. They will give you an attitude for asking a simple question. The security officers seem to really hate their jobs (which I can't blame them) & I've gotten attitude from several for asking questions. You can tell they're here only to pay their bills because that's the best their GED equivalent diplomas could get them in life. I hear all the time of widespread abuse & prisoner beatings happening here so "excessive force" is obviously something this prison is grappling with. Lots of contraband (like drugs, knives, & tobacco) get smuggled in here (no surprise) so they can do better. Avoid at all costs.

I did…read morenot do the Alcatraz tour when I was last in San Francisco and I did walk past the Reading Gaol (Reading, UK which once housed Oscar Wilde). Does "Jailbreak Brewing Company" in Laurel MD count? From the National Register, where the Jail was listed in 1971, "The 1823 Lancaster County Jail is a significant example of Robert Mills architecture and reflects his innovative ideas on the proper construction of penal institutions. The jail is a stuccoed brick building of three stories with Palladian style stone quions and stringcourses. It features a gable roof, iron grates, first floor windows and doors within recessed arches, and gable parapets with coping and a raised center section. Although Mills never signed his buildings and often failed to sign his plans, a number of building characteristics and facts substantiate the 1823 jail is his design. Some characteristics of Mills' work are the following: Mills advocated free circulation of air in jail construction, and this was achieved in the Lancaster County Jail by placing barred cages for prisoners in the middle of the room; the absence of a dungeon reflects a Mills innovation in penal reform; classifying prisoners according to their crime was a Mills recommendation, and this was achieved in the Lancaster County Jail by placing prison rooms for debtors on the first floor and other cells were on the second floor; Mills was a member of the Board of Public Works for the State of South Carolina from 1820-1830, and he was referred to in public documents of that period as the 'State Engineer and Architect.'" The nearby Lancaster County Courthouse https://www.yelp.com/biz/lancaster-county-courthouse-lancaster is also worth a visit as it was also designed by Mills who is most famous as the architect of the Washington Monument.

Five *and a half* years later, I'm back to renew my concealed carry permit with the sheriff. While…read moreI submitted the paperwork in July for a permit that was due to expire in October, it took until January for it to be approved. And it took a lawsuit. It seems that out of the 100 counties in the Tarheel State, Mecklenburg is the ONLY ONE that is requiring mental health records from the VA even for applicants who swear under oath that they have never served in the military. Yes, the VA is quite backed up with responding to the multitude of requests and they're certainly in no bigger rush to search for records of people who have no records to find. No other county does this. Not Wake, not Durham, not even Buncombe County is asking the VA for mental health records. Under Sheriff McFadden, Mecklenburg is the only one. North Carolina is a "must issue" state which means that unless the sheriff has an articulable reason to deny a permit, they are required to approve or deny within 45 days of receiving the paperwork. Mecklenburg is choosing to declare that the 45 days only starts ticking when they have received the responses from the SIX state hospitals and in 2022/2023, the VA is taking several months to respond. The lawsuit was filed against the sheriff and a response was due within 30 days. According to the signed response provided to the court, my permit was approved three days before the deadline of the response. I can only wonder if it would have been processed in the same (slow) timeline if I had not signed on as a plaintiff. North Carolina law states that an expired permit is valid until the replacement is either denied or approved, as long as the renewal was applied for before expiration. Mine was applied four months before expiration, so I was allowed to continue to carry in North Carolina (I also carried a printout of the statute in case there were questions). But I was unwilling to risk carrying a concealed weapon in any of the nearly three dozen other states that honor North Carolina permits as I did not believe they would honor North Carolina law. A right delayed is a right denied. As such, I remain disappointed with the Sheriff of Mecklenburg County. I doubt they'll change voluntarily. They believe that they're correct. I disagree. We'll see what the courts say. After the recent Supreme Court decision in Bruen, I believe the Sheriff will have no choice but to change. And it's shame that it will take the court to get them to do what's right and what 99 other North Carolina courts are doing. [Review 19103 overall - 3405 in North Carolina - 73 of 2023.]
