Review of Hamilton County Justice Center

I was very appalled at the attitude of the guards ...

I was very appalled at the attitude of the guards when I first entered the building.they was two guards inside visitors entrance.they was rude and absolutely no eye contact .none was at all helpful.I came with a friend to her visit and had no idea where we was going, I asked a gentleman where we needed to go and again no eye contact he didn't even stop he just pointed to the direction to head to. Metal detector not attended .it wasn't even on .now I volunteer in georgia and when anyone comes into building the guards are friendly but firm. a man at every station and attentive to the human beings coming to see their loved ones.i was very appalled with the conditions of this establishment it was beyond filthy.if the visiting area was discusting I couldn't believe what I was seeing, floors black and sticky seats had stuff spilled on them and sticky. Bathrooms had vomit on wall trash can and floors amd what looked like mold around the block walls where people sit to talk to their family.it is nhundredthot fit for an animal to live in .the pound is exceptionally cleaner than this facility. My heart breaks that if it is that disgusting and for law abiding tax payers that contribute to this facility for the inmates is inhumane to have to live in filth and have guards so rude.they are not guilty of a crime till proven so.I am ashamed of any law enforcement that would let this go on in any jail.you know some inmates are capable yo clean this whole facility after hours with a guard that's working nights evidently not doing much of nothing.sad tax payers money hard at work.and how about feed them inmates decent food! hundredths don't care you already found them guilty.They are still human .someone's son .brother father.husband.and its aweful to know children see this discussing place and it is very wrong.someone don't care about their job or the people nor the family and kids that come there.I cried when I left and did not know a soul there.
