The Gwinnett County Sheriff\u2019s Office is planning to offer one new amenity to inmates in the county jail in an effort to cover the cost of keeping track of nonviolent offenders who are out on bond.
If that sounds a bit confusing, here it is in a nutshell: Chief Deputy Cleo Atwater unveiled two programs the Sheriff\u2019s Office wants to initiate during a business plan presentation to the county\u2019s 2023 Budget Citizens Review Team on Monday.
In one of the programs Atwater highlighted, the sheriff\u2019s office would begin providing tablets with educational and entertainment options on them to jail inmates. The inmates would have to pay out of their inmate accounts to use the entertainment options on the tablets and those proceeds to cover the costs of the other program, which is a pre-trial program where nonviolent offenders would wear ankle monitors while out on bond.
