Why? –
Nov. 2, 2018 – Bailey, a 26-year-old Northern Kentucky man who’d been arrested with heroin, hadn’t reported to his probation officer on three different days or found a job, court documents say. He also didn’t complete cognitive behavioral classes that had been ordered. The county probation department recommended that Bailey undergo residential drug treatment at River City Correctional Center. The Camp Washington facility is a local alternative to prison for nonviolent offenders. Common Pleas Judge Charles Kubicki faced a dilemma. Under a law that went into effect last year that limits sentences for probation violations for offenders convicted of low-level crimes, Kubicki could only impose a 90-day prison sentence.
