Officials in Durham were dumbfounded today to learn that none of the 26 new positions created this fall to ease heavy caseloads among probation officers will be added in the Durham probation office.
Wake County will get nine new positions. Guilford County gets three and New Hanover gets two. The remaining 12 jobs are spread across the state in urban and rural counties.
"This sounds like an April Fool's joke in December," said Marcia Morey, a Durham District Court judge who has been outspoken about the problems in Durham. "I'm just dumbfounded."
