The hunger strike that gripped jails in Orange County over the July 4 weekend over calls for the return visitation privileges and hot meals has come to an end for now.
Sheriff Sandra Hutchens agrees that serious failures by her own jail managers probably enabled last year’s jailbreak.
The sheriff agrees with the grand jury about a lack of supervision the Central Men’s Jail regarding key issues that could have prevented the escape, like properly inspecting plumbing tunnels, and that her executives failed to take action when problems with inmate counts were raised.
