Michigan audits cite lapses in counts, security
By AP

New state audits show corrections officers at prisons in mid-Michigan and the Upper Peninsula were not following guidelines to keep track of inmates and materials.
State auditors said Bellamy Creek Correctional Facility employees did not always document the actual location of inmates.
Corrections officers did the required number of prisoner counts and accounted for all the inmates. But, in some cases, an inmate was reported to be two locations or wasn't accounted for in a housing unit.
Auditors said they found that prison employees at the Chippewa Correctional Facility and Straits Correctional Facility in Chippewa County didn't keep up lists of critical and possibly dangerous items moving in and out of the facility.
The audit covered a two-year period between 2002 and 2004.
