Staffers at the Rutherford County Jail have said life there under former sheriff Robert Arnold was bad, but that's now changed.

According to reports, safety and services have been on an upswing after the former sheriff allowed the jail to become decertified.

Former life there included dangerous conditions, lousy morale, and big money lawsuits.

NewsChannel 5’s Nick Beres took a tour of the jail to learn more about the changes.
