Sheriff Jailed Over Skimpy Jail Meals Policy
In Birmingham, Alabama, U.S. District Judge A W Clemon ruled Morgan County Sheriff Greg Bartlett profited by feeding inmates meals deemed skimpy under a legal but criticized practice. Inmates testified to meager rations of thin bologna chicken and cold grits, with prisoners paying for pricier snacks from the jail store to supplement meals. The judge ordered Bartlett held until he submits a plan to provide nutritionally adequate meals as required by a prior jail-conditions agreement.
