" wow, you all complain about everthing, this is the government/county to make these fools pay off what they owe themselves instead of leaning on the tax payers. I'm sure there are guidelines. If they are working 12 hours days, and go home and sleep, all the $ goes to fines, they have to stay on good behavior to participate, etc. This is also a realistic way to start to educated/re-establish themselves as a normal working citizen.

" Sounds like the perfect lifestyle. Sit around and watch tv all week in a cell witha bunch of other guys--then go home for the weekend to make a buck and greet the old lady. What a grand vacation, er, punishment. "

" LaCrosse county used to have a similar program (albeit limited), until it closed the Huber center. Now we just give them all an ankle bracelet and let them go home. That'll learn 'em! "

" Not so fast. Most of these guys probably have hubor already. That means they go to work during the week and sleep in the jail. Now they get to go home to their families on the weekend? What kind of punishment is that? "
