SUMMARY: Construction has begun on a new Hinds County jail in Mississippi, with the first phase expected to be completed by summer 2025. The new jail is a $100 million-plus project and will be a significant improvement from the current Raymond Detention Center, which has experienced deteriorating conditions and breaches since its opening in 1994. The new facility, designed by CDFL Architects + Engineers and built by Benchmark Construction, will be located on 35 acres and have the capacity to house up to 700 beds. Additional security measures have been implemented at the Raymond Detention Center to prevent further breaches.
