OCALA, Fla. (AP) - Want a wild ride with the Marion County
Sheriff's Office? Go to YouTube.
The sheriff's office set up their own channel on YouTube in August.
Sheriff's office Web master, Randy Randolph, says the videos
were posted to give people another way to find the sheriff's
office.
The site gives a brief description of the sheriff's office,
places to view videos and a place for people to post a comment. It
even has a spot for people to subscribe. So far, there are two
subscribers.
Since its creation, the video section has received 1,754 hits.
Randolph says sheriff's officials have plans to bolster their
Web site, including improving the system where visitors to the jail
can speak with an inmate over a Web cam.

Are these visits with the inmates over the webcam going to be monitored?  I thought the whole point of them being in Jail was to punish them by making it where they have limited contact with the outside world.
