In days of old the local Sheriff would protect the town and lock up the 'bad guys' until the Circuit Judge showed up for a trial and a sentencing. There were no 'reentry' programs, support services or opportunities to redeem oneself. Modern times, in most cases has changed the thought process around reform and reentry and thankfully people like Sheriff Patrick J. Cahillane of the Hampshire County Sheriff's Department believe that the offerings of resources, such as housing, for those he calls 'de-incarcerated' are not only needed but life-changing to prevent recidivism.
