We’re learning more about ex-Limestone County Sheriff Mike Blakely’s accommodations now that he’s booked inside the jail he used to run.
Mike West, Limestone County Coroner and Acting Sheriff, said Blakely now is staying in a cell by himself.

But Blakely spent his first 24 hours in custody inside his own office, West says.
He said it wasn’t special treatment, it was out of necessity.
West said Blakely was allowed to stay in his office because there were no empty jail cells available – not even in the medical isolation ward. That location was one of the first mentioned as where Blakely might be housed since, as a law enforcement officer, he wouldn t be placed in general population.
