TROUBLE IN PARADISE

by Bob Walsh

Assuming you consider the Lake Region Correctional Facility at Devils Lake, N.D., to be paradise, there is some trouble there. Recently a sex offender got out of the county slammer by the simple expedient of sliding under one fence and over another one during yard time. Nobody noticed he was gone for 30 hours. Whoops. The senior Correctional Officer on duty at the time resigned after that one.

The county commissioners are looking into problems related to the operation of the facility. There have been three escapes during the last two years.
