The Smackover Jail was built in the early 1900’s, and served as the city jail until 1970. It became too run down to continue using for detention purposes, so the city started sending prisoners to the county lock up. The old Jail is now unoccupied and in need of repairs.

This Video clip was
taken in the upstairs portion of the jail. The upstairs is not
accessible but I was able to place the camera in the doorway via a
concrete block and a long stretch. It was too cold for bugs and the
white blur you see was not a bird or hand - at least it was not the hand
of a "live" being. |
