Hamilton County Sheriff Jim Neil

When Hamilton County Sheriff Jim Neil took office in January, he was the first new leader of the department in twenty-five years. Sheriff Neil, Chief Deputy Mark Schoonover and Major Charmaine McGuffey, head of the Hamilton County Justice Department, talk about patrolling the county and managing its inmate population with a budget that’s twenty percent less than it was five years ago.
