Nasty stuff, that jailhouse hooch

Daily News photographer John McCoy and I took a trip to Men's Central Jail a couple weeks ago for a story about jailhouse brew and the searches that deputies perform to find the stuff. Although we did not find any contraband that day, I'll take the deputies' word that the stuff is pretty nasty. But to give the story a little more authority, I probably should have tried it, yeah? Above is a file photo provided by the Sheriff's Department. Below is a photo of Deputy Robert Staggs and his dog Toby searching a 50-man dorm.

Here's the story, if you missed it yesterday.
