Wayne County

When Darrell Ewing landed in the Wayne County Jail a year and a half ago, he found a lot of people struggling. Courts were backed up because of the pandemic, and Ewing said people around him lost loved ones or saw relationships fall apart while they waited – sometimes for years – for their trials to begin. On top of that, no one in the jail had been able to see their friends or family since the jail shut down in-person visitation when COVID broke out in March of 2020.

People detained at the Wayne County Jail say one of the buildings had issues with heating last weekend. Sources detained in the jail say temperatures began to drop on Friday and the Division 2 jail building stayed cold through Monday.

The Michigan Supreme Court is considering a proposal to make Juneteenth a state court holiday.
