An article published in our Wednesday, June 27 edition, reporting on a meeting of the Belknap County Convention, incorrectly attributed a comment about law enforcement’s role in the rising jail population to Rep. Harry Accornero. In fact, the comments were made by Rep. Bob Greemore (R-Meredith), who yesterday explained that he was reacting to another delegate’s remark that law enforcement officers have no choice but to detain those who have committed crimes. “Police don’t have to arrest people, it’s their option,” said Greemore, lamenting the lack of alternatives, such as substance abuse or mental health treatment programs.
