After contempt order, state transfers ‘unfit’ detainee, but dozens across state remain in limbo – Center Square

The governor didn't reissue the COVID-19 executive order limiting county inmate transfers to state prisons, but on June 24, 2022, he did reissue the order limiting DHS from taking inmates deemed unfit for trial. “If the governor is using COVID as the reason to not transfer, well, COVID still exists in our jail too, but the problem is these inmates need help,” Sangamon County Sheriff Jack Campbell said.
