Cuyahoga County Prosecutor Michael C. OMalley is urging a halt to the construction of a new jail in Garfield Heights, citing a violation of Ohio law. The project, which aims to replace the downtown Justice Center and house up to 1,886 inmates, began before required approvals were obtained from two groups. OMalleys letter to county leaders demands a full stop until proper approvals are secured, warning of illegal spending of public funds. The new jail, set to open in 2029, promises improved mental health services, a behavioral care center, reentry support, and recreation spaces for inmates. The county now faces the challenge of getting back on track with the projects future uncertain.
