The juvenile department from the judge clear to the probation department is a freaking joke! Always about the money not about what's best for the children 💯

A piece of knox County history well preserved. The cupola has just been redone and waiting on the hands of the clock, and the inner workings to return.

It's hard for me to rate this place because it used to be the worst place in Mount Vernon for me at least I used to get in a lot of trouble back in my younger days I had a real hatred for Mount Vernon cops but now that I'm older I realize that it's just doing their jobs and it wasn't too bad going in there since I don't get in trouble anymore but they say in the parking garage isn't safe for people to park in got all the way to the top floor to pay on any fines or to talk to anybody the police station is on the first floor which I don't know too much about lo l

In dire need of reform!!!! Children's lives at stake for new flags, coffee pots and bigger salaries! Anyone in a position that is able and willing Please help our community and our children!!!! -5% reunification rating once a child is taken into care, usually by parents being threatened and put under distress, even those seeking help! Group homes being paid upwards of $200/day, county receiving over $27,000 per month! While said children being denied medical, dental, proper education, any stability, let alone Christmas, a birthday card even!?
