Sometimes when we look back, some things are clearly obvious. In this interview, we have a conversation with Captain Tammy Waddell the Jail Administrator of the Limestone County Jail. She shares with us her path to a position of leadership, some things she’s learned along the way, some things she wished she would have known, and a few things for those in the midst of “working their way up.” It is an enjoyable and enlightening conversation with something for everyone.

In this episode host Aaron Dawson shares some headlines of current events within the corrections world. We take a look at these topics, some of which are informative, some of which are strange, some of which are instructive, and others are just plain humorous. We look at a wild event requiring 12 people to go to the hospital, the importance of maintaining control, and a story of an agency backing their staff and charging an inmate for assault.

We take a look at these topics, some of which are informative, some of which are strange, some of which are instructive, and others are just plain humorous. We look at how quickly things can spin out of control, how weather can cause issues, the importance of training and a wild story about the arrest of an escaped inmate…decades after his escape.
