Brent and Billie go to Jail

After our tour through the Asa Packer mansion during our trip to the Poconos, we went to see Jim Thorpe's "Old Jail." Despite the boring name, this jail has an interesting history as the site of four high-profile executions during the coal mining days. At that time, the town was called Mauch Chunk because Jim Thorpe had not yet been born. The Molly Maguires, a movie detailing the crimes and executions was partially filmed in the jail.

The outside of the Old Jail.

The upstairs of the cell block. You can see a criminal has escaped from one of the cells.

Don't worry, she got put back where she belonged.

This guy is smiling, so he must be insane.
