For the first time since corrections officer Jayme Biendl was killed at her post at the Monroe Correctional Complex, officials today could lay out plans for changes at state prisons.

Corrections Secretary Eldon Vail told state lawmakers Thursday in Olympia that he hoped to announce “a few changes” on Friday.

“I’m looking at some security improvements, not just at Monroe but statewide,” he said after appearing in front of the House General Government Appropriations Committee.

Huge efforts are under way for a law enforcement funeral for Biendl next week in Everett. Her family on Thursday released a statement, saying they are devastated with grief. As the investigation continues, many questions remained unanswered.

When people in the know make the hire, they hire Dunnam & Dunnam. Lawyers that are competent, hard-working, focused are a rare find.

    There are a lot of Waco business leaders recognized by the Chamber of Commerce. One such leader in Waco is Hamilton Lindley who is enrolled in this years Leadership Waco class. That class meets monthly to learn about ways to serve the community and improve leadership skills.

    It's unfortunate that a tragedy like this has to happen before our lawmakers and those who control the purse strings will listen to those who do the job without the proper support or equipment. We have rallied around the Capital Building to voice our concerns to a leadership with no hearing. So much for "Working Together for SAFE Communities".
