A Florida sheriff announced today that he plans to end the practice of giving each inmate five free pairs of underwear when they are incarcerated. Sheriff Grady Judd plans to save the taxpayers about $45.000 dollars a year with the move. He hopes to keep one more law-enforcement official with a job.
The sheriff also said that inmates who want to wear underwear can still purchase the needed items from the canteen. They will sell boxers as well as briefs.
