SALINA- Officials at the Saline County jail reported two batches of homemade alcohol were found in the kitchen of the jail this week.

They found a dispenser filled with about two gallons of the clear homemade liquor commonly known as “hooch’ during an inspection on Monday, according to Saline County Sheriff’s Captain Brent Melander.

On Tuesday jail officials found a mustard jar of homemade wine inside a tea dispenser. Crushed tomatoes were still fermenting inside the jar with a rubber glove attached to the top of the jar to help the fermentation process.

The inmates involved in the incident were assigned to the kitchen and were being supervised by CBM Food Services, a company that is contracted by the Sheriff’s Office for meal preparation at the jail.

Melander said that jail staff often assists CBM with the supervision, but understaffing often complicates the matter.

Melander says charges aren’t likely, but the inmates involved will be reassigned and moved away from the kitchen.
