I AGREE WITH BOB C who stated:
Have to agree with some of the above comments and wonder how many of these “Outstanding Warrants” are for something like Failure to Appear on a very minor offense.
Seems kind of strange this many are picked up when the County Jail and the holding facility are sending inmates to other counties to be housed because of the explosion at this county’s facility.

Our jail is dangerously overcrowded now. We have 3 inmates being housed in 2 man cells with the 3rd one sleeping on the floor on a mat. It is crazy and very unsafe for both officers and inmates.

I agree with I can tell you. I am grateful for what they did in getting those people off the streets.

While some of these caught in “Operation Summer Heat” how many will end up costing taxpayers even more money?

Chances are that most of these 69 folks arrested will be – or already are – back out on the street after posting a minimal bond or being released by a Judge.

A revolving door that makes a fair assessment of society.

In actuality, there were likely more people arrested in the same period of time “outside” of this named operation.
Most outstanding warrant arrests happen by chance when ta person gets pulled over or does something else stupid that gets the LEO’s involved.
Then it is found there is a warrant on them and bingo, they get arrested.

@wyatte –
How about enforcing the law every day and there would be no need for an “operation”.

Deputies are out there making arrests and serving warrants every day. But some of the more elusive ones need special effort and resources, so these “operations” are done to grab the ones that are slipping through the cracks.
