Kentucky was one of a few states where the jail population increased last year, and officials have taken notice. The nonprofit Kentucky Center for Economic Policy won a $10,000 grant to research the issue, and national organizations like the Bail Project have landed in Louisville to institute bail reform. WFPL's Rick Howlett talked with jail officials and advocates about Kentucky's incarceration rates, and what they think should be done to address it. The guests were:
o Louisville Metro Department of Corrections Director Mark Bolton
o Louisville Bail Project Site Manager Shameka Parrish-Wright
o Eastern Kentucky University Associate Professor Judah Schept
