‘Participant’ sets jail
break record straight
Dear editor,
As a witness and an incarcitee, I would like to add the following facts to the rumor of our incarceration.
(Letter to the Editor, April 11, concerning incident in cornerstone leveling incident at new police station March 30.)
After failing to follow directions by an anonymous senior and beloved mason, we were locked in the cells with running water and working toilets.
The current police chief did try to make our stay more relaxed by slipping Rockdale jail cell bologna under the door and poured whiskey on the floor under the door with straws to bolster our spirits.
Although I offered my Bowie knife, the mayor picked the door with the stale bologna.
The plaque denoting our presence as the first detainees will be unveiled during the ribbon-cutting ceremony.
Regards, Chris Whittaker Rockdale City Manager
