Editor’s note: A story about Sheriff Kevin Bond taking care of a complaint about a heating problem at the county jail elicited a surprising number of comments on www. sedaliademocrat.com. Here are a few of them, which have been edited.
And what makes this article newsworthy when there are so many other community stories that would have been much more informative and beneficial to society? So an inmate got cold. We set our thermostat to 64 every night and throw a blanket on. He’s in jail. A little discomfort of a criminal does not headlines make. Did his criminal offense get that much attention? Pfft. Baloney. Come on guys. I know it’s cold and snowy, but you can find something better to write about.
