On this episode, before we reached the 12th month of this year, 12 inmates had died within the walls of Southern Regional Jail. I discuss reports of an ongoing federal investigation, the latest death, the Governor's earlier internal investigation, and the crisis-like status of our entire regional jail system. Next, I go into some further detail as to what exactly led a crowd of people to show up on the Mercer County courthouse steps demanding justice for Kierra Jackson. Finally, amidst the scrutiny on the performance at the WV DHHR, Bill Couch announces he'll be stepping down as the cabinet secretary over the organization.
