Connie Jo Discoe/McCook Daily Gazette

Red Willow County, Nebraska, commissioners Vesta Dack and, from the right, Earl McNutt and Steve Downer tour the Red Willow County Detention Center 96-hour holding facility with Sheriff Gene Mahon, center, and jail supervisor Gerry Hunter this morning. The facility is the former jail and police department of the City of McCook; the county will use it until its new jail is built and completed. Sheriff's department secretary Kristy Pollnow stands on tip-toe to look into one of two ground-floor holding cells. The facility has six cells on the lower level.
