DeKalb County Jail holds ~3,000 inmates — one of Georgia's largest.
Located in Decatur, GA, the DeKalb County Jail complex serves a county of over 770,000 residents. Its scale makes oversight a significant challenge, and in-custody deaths there draw statewide attention.
U.S. jails pay out ~$1B+ annually in civil rights lawsuit settlements.
