Spokane should continue to house inmates at Geiger Correctional Facility

Spokane needs to keep inmates housed at Geiger Correctional Facility.  This facility has been paid in full my Spokane County taxpayers many times over.  Housing inmates locally is better for the families so they can visit them.  Usually most inmates family live close by and having them moved to Benton County would actually make it harder for family member to visit them.  Instead of saving money and moving the inmates.  Please tell your city council to keep the inmates at Geiger Correctional Facility.  This would also present less of a headache for Spokane County because closing this facility would cause some correctional employees to lose their jobs.  This place has been a work release facility and has help inmates become better productive members of society.  The other alternative would be for Spokane County to allow more halfway house to house low risk offenders.
