The Department of Corrections has Admitted to Security Lapses
This at the prison where three inmates escaped a little over a week ago.
The prison break has intensified the debate over private prisons in Arizona.
Convicted felons, for years have been moved to minimum security prisons after showing good behavior, which is how these recent escapees ended up in Kingman.
Because of the recent prison break, that process might be re-evaluated.

City Looses $24,100.00
in Cinco De Mayo
Events/Tex Mex Concert
The City lost $24,000.00 on the Cinco De Mayo events. That number could possibly be reduced by $8,000.00 when disputed tallies are accounted for. Booth rental, ticket sales, and beer sales brought in $36,221.95. After payment of everything associated with the events, there was a loss of $24,100.00.
There were some lessons learned and that next year there will probably be a scaled down major event along with the return of the smaller Downtown Cinco De Mayo celebration.
