From today’s Down in Alabama podcast:

In 2018, Brookside, Alabama, started ramping up its police force.

In one year, the collections of fines and forfeitures in the town doubled, and by 2020 they accounted for 49 percent of Brookside’s revenue.

More on Brookside on today’s news briefing. Also, we have a new high for pediatric hospitalizations, and the state is reexamining sludge use.
