One of the problems of the poorly designed Lincoln County Regional Jail is the inadequate line of sight through the cell doors into the units, pictured in Stanford, Ky., on Thursday, December 6, 2007. The Lincoln County jail is one of many in Kentucky that are badly overcrowded but still contracted to hold state inmates by the Kentucky Department of Corrections, because there are no vacant prison beds. Aggravating matters, the Lincoln County jail is a 70-year-old building in poor condition. Photo by David Stephenson | Staff 4611
