Clayton County Jail

In November of 2005 the citizens of Clayton County voter on a bond to build a new Law Enforcement Center. In the spring of 2006 a ground breaking ceremony took place and construction began. The new Law Enforcement Center (LEC) will hold 40 inmates compared to the 8 inmates the jail currently holds. An open house for the new LEC is scheduled for the end of July 2006. A new LEC was needed because over the last several years the current jail has failed several inspections due to its age and security issues.
