A recent break-in at Nashville’s newly constructed Downtown Detention Center could delay the opening planned for this month, Nashville Public Radio reports. The break-in by criminal justice reform advocate Alex Friedmann will require all locks to be replaced at the facility according to the Davidson County Sheriff’s Office. The sheriff alleges that Friedmann posed as a construction worker, made diagrams of the jail and stole keys for about 100 of the doors at the facility.
