Inmates Love Lumpkin Toilet Water

It seems that the Lumpkin County Detention Center was a hot bed of activity this month. According to The Dahlonega Nugget's Crimebeat this week -
  • An inmate was sprayed with pepper-spray after stuffing her jumpsuit in the toilet, trying to flood her cell. Afterwards, we hope the deputies gave her a dry, clean jumpsuit sans pepper spray and toilet water.
  • Another inmate was handcuffed and tased to stop him from splashing toilet water on his face. Gee, the toilet water at the Lumpkin jail must be extra special.
  • And an inmate was restrained after repeatedly banging his head on the cell door. Ooh, talk about a sore head. Hope the deputies gave him some Excedrin Migraine afterwards.
But probably the most interesting items in Crimebeat were the reports of the Segway damaged when a Lumpkin County deputy "bumped" the two wheeler into a step at the city park and a man's two-year-old identifying the neighbor's children as the ones who threw rocks at the man's truck. Love to see that case go to trial. Two-year-olds always make terrific witnesses.

As always, Dahlonega and Beyond has its share of crime, just not the Page One Atlanta Journal & Constitution type. (Thank goodness.)
