Biggs shared concerns from State's Attorney McMahon over the door locking systems at the JJC and JC. A complete review by a third-party will cost $5,000-$10,000. To ensure public and employee safety, McMahon felt each county building should be on complete lockdown every day. Biggs stated he agreed with him on those items.
