Indianapolis, In. – The Indiana Department of Corrections says they will begin making payments to counties that have been housing State prisoners. The state has spent the last several months calculating the amount owed. It looks like Vigo will receive about $300,000. The largest payments are set to go to several northern Indiana counties with high numbers of state holds. Elkhart County is owed more than a half million dollars. The reimbursements will come in a single distribution next week, and that money will come from IDOC’s budget.
