What does the Little Hut Drive jail offer?

The jail is run by the county's own Department of Corrections rather than the Sheriff's Office. It opened in 1988 and now has 148 beds. People held get three meals a day, health care, drug and alcohol classes, GED classes, library and legal access, recreation and religious services.

↑ Back to the question list

Why does a separate department run the Centreville jail?

After a 1981 lawsuit over poor conditions in an old Eastern Shore jail, the Sheriff closed the old county jail because it could not meet state standards. The county hired its first warden in 1987, and the new jail took its first people in April 1988 with 80 beds. A 1990 addition raised that to 104, and two 2009 units brought it to 148. The staff list includes a Pre-Trial Supervisor; ask about pretrial release at 410-758-3817.
