Consider this a Dress rehearsal

ST. LOUIS — Three trespassers had to be rescued by police Thursday night after accidentally locking themselves in a jail cell inside a shuttered city jail. St. Louis police spokesperson Sgt. Charles Wall said officers responded to the Medium Security Institution, colloquially known as the "Workhouse," after the three men called 911 for help.

Police helped free the men from a cell and then arrested them.

Wall said the men face possible charges for property damage, burglary and stealing. An investigation is ongoing.

The jail, located at 7600 Hall Street, has sat empty for more than a year. The last inmates were moved out in May 2022, about a year after St. Louis Mayor Tishaura Jones announced it would close amid allegations of inhumane conditions.

A steering committee overseeing the facility's future has been tasked with narrowing down new uses for the site to recommend to city leaders. The results of a community survey were released in August, and the committee is planning a second survey to further narrow down the choices.

Date: 12/3/2023 3:06:00 PM  From Authorid: 21435    Well, what do you think the facility should be re-purposed as?

kronk---Eh? Maybe it should be made into a "city jail?" You can never have too many of those. I mean, you know, dog. Protect the law abiding citizens; fill up the jails with criminals and hire more correctional officers.

"L.D."---Might be good for the economy?

  
Date: 12/3/2023 3:47:00 PM  ( From Author ) From Authorid: 5940    That’s what I thought as well. Certainly, with its past history of being a “ correctional facility “ it’s perfectly suited for detaining members of society that don’t like prison food but can’t seem to abide by the rules.

Why do they call it a “ correctional facility “ anyway? The building didn’t break the law.

...I think I saw this "Abandoned Building Exploration" video on YouTube.

...I sort of agree with Kronk and L.D. in that there
just aren't enough jails and prisons in the U.S. and
it would be extremely beneficial for your economy.

If you are all lucky, your favorite president will
once again befoul the hallways of the White House and
correctional institutions will see exponential rises
in popularity. This will be a way of beating the Chinese
at their own game by creating those much beloved "Made in
America" products by an unending supply of cheap labor
supplied by the "vacationers". This will lower costs and
create a previously unknown and untapped resource for your
betters to milk. They'll do it all for you.

"L.D."---Maybe "they" get off knowing that no matter how heinous the crime, somebody will take up for them?

kronk---Oh yeah; "due process."
  
Date: 12/4/2023 5:56:00 PM  From Authorid: 21435    Hekler "L.D." here: I like the way you roll, dude.

kronk---I'm diggin it myself, dog.

"L.D."---I believe I'll start working on a documentary. How's this for a title; "A Canadian Expatriate is Gun Barrel City, Texas?"

kronk---Dog, it grabs me! "We" could use a man like Hekler. I believe he just may have "True Grit!"

"L.D."---I'm hungry.
