During this morning’s meeting of the Kankakee County Board’s Criminal Justice Committee, County Sheriff Mike Downey told the committee the number of local inmates housed at the Jerome Combs Detention Center is down a bit. Downey credited the Illinois Department of Corrections as one of the reasons for the downturn
Downey said he is still keeping track of the amount still owed to Kankakee County for housing prisoners not taken by the Department of Corrections since June 30th 2021. State legislators will have to submit the reimbursement to be made through the State budget.
