WORKERS WITH Weeminuche Construction Authority and Barbour Building Systems set up a prefabricated jail-cell unit Thursday near the intersection of Mildred and Empire, site of the county’s new 110-bed detention facility. There are 16 modules with two cells in each to be used for high-security inmates. The modules weighed 52,000 pounds apiece and had to be set in place by a special 125-ton crane from Albuquerque.
