You can't compare juvenile detention centers to adult correctional facilities. These are two completely different fields, and it is mind boggling how Williams could even be considered for this job. First, they have 1 staff member for every 10 youth. With corrections, its 1 officer for every 30 - 45 inmates, and often it can be 1 officer for every 75 inmates. Additionally, youth centers receive major funding for counseling, drug rehabilitation, schooling, and job prep. Correctional facilities in the state lost many of their programs due to cut funding about 7 years ago. There use to be social workers employed at these facilities overseeing these programs and many lost their jobs when these cuts occurred. If a youth is suicidal, policy requires someone to sit with them. Correctional facility policy is vastly different. Again, Williams should be focused on changing the policy and increasing correctional officer and medical staff for facilities. Instead, he hires a media relations person..
