On Monday, Calcasieu Parish Sheriff Gary “Stitch” Guillory announced that the Corrections Division of the Calcasieu Parish Sheriff’s Office is a part of season 7 of the which is produced by the creators of “COPS,” Langley Productions, according to a news release.
“I am proud of the men and women who work in our Corrections Division here at CPSO,” Guillory said in the release. “Participating in ‘JAIL’ gives our community a chance to see the work our deputies do behind the scenes and the professionalism and dedication they demonstrate while performing those duties.”
‘JAIL’ is described online as a reality TV show that follows individuals arrested for a variety of crimes while they are booked and put in custody waiting for trial, released on bail or transferred to a different facility.
