January 31st, 2024 by Ric Hanson

(Guthrie Center, Iowa) – January was a bit of a slower month for processing inmates at the Guthrie County jail. Deputy Sheriff Jesse Swensen, in his monthly report issued today (Wednesday), said “The weather was partially to blame. We processed 65 inmates during the month.

“We held 33 out of county inmates for different periods of time. We brought in $22,250 from holding out of county inmates. With the 14 inmates we received from Polk County yesterday, February’s revenue should be significantly higher.”
