On April 8, 2014, the Charlotte County Board of Supervisors passed a resolution commending Captain Keith Lockridge, Jail Administrator of the Charlotte County Jail, and his staff for their recent achievements and recognized them for their commitment, hard work, and professionalism. This past January, the Charlotte County Jail received a compliance rating of 100% from the Virginia Department of Corrections’ (DOC) for its annual Life, Health, and Safety (LHS) unannounced inspection.

Along with the LHS inspections of 2009, 2011, 2012 and the three year audits of 2010 and 2013 this is the Charlotte County Jails’ sixth consecutive 100% compliance rating from the Department of Corrections.

In attendance for the recognition on behalf of the Sheriff’s Office were Captain Keith Lockridge, Lieutenant Melissa Tharpe, and Sergeant Timmy Dix. Captain Lockridge would like to thank the Charlotte County Board of Supervisors. A special thanks also goes out to Sheriff Thomas D. Jones for the recognition and the support he gives the jail.
