On April 15, 2008, the
Virginia Department of Corrections performed an unannounced annual life,
health, and safety inspection of Henrico
County’s Jail West. The facility passed the inspection with 100
percent compliance. Sheriff Wade thanked
the employees of the Sheriff’s Office who work extremely hard on the rules and
regulations that have to be met and the paperwork that has to be filed.
BOARD

tested a sewer drain in her garage to help locate the source of the
infestation. Mrs. O’Bannon noted that
any Henrico citizen would receive this same level of service.
