Bulloch County Jail inmates were disgusted Monday after spotting what some said were live maggots in the potatoes served for dinner. After the father of a current inmate contacted the Statesboro Herald Tuesday, both Bulloch County Sheriff Lynn Anderson and Bulloch County Correctional Institute Warden Billy Tompkins confirmed that “some kind of bug” was found in the potatoes. Tompkins said the remaining portions of the inmate’s meals were destroyed, as were any possibly contaminated foods that were not yet served.
