General election season is coming soon, with ballots due Nov. 4. Then reporter Nance Beston talked about allegations made by a former Grant County Jail inmate about the quality of medical care at the facility and claiming several deaths had occurred within the jail during his stay. However, after reviewing jail records and talking with officials, it turns out that there has only been one death in the jail. Then, according to Chief Deputy of Corrections Phillip Coats, the care exceeds federal standards, even without around clock care.
