Prisons Head Would Gain Authority Under North Carolina Bill
In Raleigh, the state prisons director would gain full administrative authority over prisons under a House bill introduced by Rep. Thomas Turner with Reps. Rodman Clark and Umstead. The plan moves power from the Highway Commission to the director, with a four year term and governor overlap. The measure limits political influence by staff and allows removal for malfeasance or neglect.
