Erie County to Probe Prison Food Quality
Erie County officials will conduct on the spot checks of jail meals over the next month. County Controller Burton J. Clapper and Sheriff John L. Coates will lead the inspection following a county prison board meeting. The November grand jury had found jail food substandard, prompting questions to Prison Warden Bruce Reeder, who defended the stew served the day of the jury’s visit.
