It is a jail and I would never want to go there again, that being said the experience was so…read moreprofound I felt I needed to write about it somehow and the officer in release had made a joke about leaving a review so here is a review for what it is worth. Had a bit of a tiff with the missus and ended up in jail, not my best moment. I run a few fairly successful business and this was my first time ever having legal trouble, much less time in jail. Anyways most of the staff seem to be trying to do their best but are often very young and inexperienced or just unprofessional. It seems most of the staff fits in these categories but man when you do find a more seasoned knowledgeable officer it's a night and day difference because the officer doing release was on point. The officer taking care of my release group was obviously overworked, he even admitted they were a little short that day but told us not to worry and he would have us out as quick as he could. Definitely knew his stuff, was answering most questions before we even finish asking them quickly and precisely. You could tell he knew what he was doing and was well versed in handling anything that was thrown his way it seemed. Two of the guy's in our group wanted to fight each other, one of them was obviously mental handicapped in some way or just crazy. I was worried what was gonna happen or if I would even get out before they started swinging but this officer just seemed to know exactly how to be disarming and intimidating all at the same time. Imagine this officer was a pretty big dude, he looked tough had a beard with a bald head these 2 guys didn't seem to care though. I thought for sure they were gonna start swinging as they started to get in each others face but the officer barks at them to knock it off. Then somehow without missing a beat swings both their attention's away from each other with the dumbest dad joke you have ever heard while keeping a straight face. It was crazy he then kept them distracted the whole time cracking off dumb jokes and comments while processing us through release like nothing happened, as if he had done it a thousand times. Completely defused the situation without lifting a finger, I wish I had gotten his name but I was so caught up in the moment I was out the door before I had the thought. As for the rest of the jail the medical care is seems to suffer from staffing as well but it seemed ok at least for major concerns. The food however is definitely not meeting any nutritional guideline, just cheap carbs and some very little proteins that may not be actually meat. Short term survivable but long term it has to contribute to health issues. Housing was not the cleanest and the company didn't make you feel to safe either but it is jail. The overall process is very slow but that seems to be due to staffing mostly from what I saw. Overall I would have said 2 stars at most but the release guy had me impressed which is why I am leaving a review in the first place. I don't know how they are hiring staff, must pay like crap or lack incentives but if they can get more like him it would help a lot.

Good place to work, but as an RN remember that in 12 hrs you won't be able to pee, eat or drink…read more You will run your butt off all day every day. The CO's, although mostly very nice, aren't usually in a hurry to help you during med pass especially in Pod 1, because they are busy with their feet up on the desk chatting it up with each other while you don't have time to complete the million other tasks you have to do. All in all a good place to work to obtain good party stories.

For starters, no pillows -_- The toilet is next to your head when you go to sleep on your cold metal mattress. The walls, though made of concrete are paper thin. You hear all the other guests every movement! and pray they don't snore. If you do manage to fall asleep don't worry, the rude staff will come by every half hour through the night and wake you up asking "are your okay?" which they don't actually care, what they're actually asking is "are you alive?" Soon as you move to say "well no thanks for asking, can I have a pillow?" they are long gone. Honestly if I had to characterize the staff's attitude I would say they treat you as if you're in some kind of jail. The food comes 3 times a day and is actually impressive, you would have to try hard to engineer food this bad. At 27 cents a trey I guess maybe I'm expecting too much? My recommendation is to get moved into Pod 3 which is the workers pod. Take a job in the kitchen and spend your 10 hour days very carefully stealing real food. It's under lock and key but they unlock it at certain times. Unlimited Milk and cookie dough, steak fajitas, real fruit like apples and oranges! And in Pod 3 you can shower everyday instead of 3 times a week plus you can work time off your stay. If you get caught taking food though you will get thrown into Pod 2 with the Murderers and other creepy people so don't get caught, cameras everywhere All said there is no hope for this place, just stay away from the fake gangsters (and the real ones). Anyone tells you they are there for an OWI is probably a cho-mo. Find normal people to hangout with and it's not that bad. Workout, read, stay sharp. Whatever you do, don't fight, even defending yourself lands you 6months, no exceptions. The CO's wont break it up either until a lieutenant shows up with a taser so you have about 20 to 35 seconds to not get your head smashed on the corner of a metal table...And don't be disillusioned that because you're in Waukesha people wont shatter your face with a cribbage board. If you do decide to book a vacation here....good luck.

Really, It's not you. It's me…read more While the food is only mediocre, the value is absolutely impeccable. The staff are completely dedicated to their jobs, although we could all benefit if they smiled more. The one on one personal attention cannot be overstated. You'll be begging them to stop. The mood lighting leaves much to be desired, although you can occasionally find a dark corner here or there, they tend to be occupied. Activities are a bit questionable, and the exercise choices are typically involuntary group efforts. I do not advise unless you are okay with sore muscles and uncomfortable stiffness. On the plus side, lots of opportunities for work. I'd recommend short stays only and wish you the best for your stay! Edit: I might have to modify down to one star as you are required to purchase white socks involuntarily. The promised toothpaste comes at a premium price. Bring your own soap. Enjoy your stay!

If you're a concerned father, or a person who needs help, do not call the police department! They will find a way to let the criminals go free while innocent parents trying to protect their kids get charged. I've never felt more unsafe in my live. This department needs to take calls more seriously. They need to listen to the people asking them for help. If anything bad happens to your family, do not count on them to help. If you annoy them too much they'll just find a way to get you in trouble instead. It's sickening.

I rarely yelp, but I have to report on a terrible experience I just had dealing with the Walworth…read moreCounty Clerk's office. I live in California and my niece, who lives in Wisconsin, asked me to perform her marriage to her fiancé in Wisconsin. (I have performed numerous marriages in the past and happen to be an ordained minister.) I said yes. I did some online research about performing a marriage as an out-of-state minister in Wisconsin, and I had a couple questions (e.g. does Wisconsin require registration? does Wisconsin require proof of a local branch of your ministry?), so I called the Clerk's office. Seems reasonable, since they will be issuing and recording the license! But when I called, I spoke to a very mean and aggressive clerk named "Kim". She cut me off repeatedly and was just terribly rude. After initially refusing to let me simply ask my questions, she finally let me speak. She then answered the questions curtly and I thanked her. But she was thoroughly dismissive and unnecessarily aggressive throughout the conversation. After hanging up, I decided to call back and lodge a complaint with Kim's boss. (After all, a marriage is supposed to be a joyous occasion, and I'm volunteering my time and energy to this happy event, while Kim just cast a pall on my efforts.) So I called back to complain and asked to speak to Kim's manager, only to discover that the Kim I dealt with is THE elected Walworth County Clerk, Kimberly Bushey. What a shame for the folks of Walworth County! So... people of Walworth County.... take my yelp review for whatever you think it is worth.

A RN used to work there because I was unable to get up to take opiate withdrawal medication. Bonus DuPage is king for covering all this up. I am now a felon and I am not even a criminal.

I never even buy junk food, but last night as I was on my way to provide overnight care for my 94 year old Grandpa, I decided to try these on a whim. Well, BIG MISTAKE. After eating only seven of the chips, today I am now SHITTING FIRE out of my poor & painful rear-end. The depths of my belly feels like that of a dragon's; my heartburn an endless lake of molten lava. From "oh my god it hurts" to stinging, butthole singeing fire-farts, these chips were worse than a bad idea: this purchase has now *easily* become my _worst_ decision all year. And now, half of my house smells like rotting, melted insides. My insides. The DuPage County Courts would do well to create a public service campaign to warn our citizens of the silent dangers these chips represent. The people should be informed about this blight of a product on our fine society! Overall, because I have seen similar products around the DuPage County jurisdiction, I am leaving one star. We can do better, people of DuPage! Down with intestinal dragons, Down with these chips, hooray for clean air and pristine toilets, hurrah!
