South Dakota prisons are full, and the numbers continue to rise.
Corrections Department Secretary Denny Kaemingk says the increase is fueled by drugs.
Kaemingk says drug offenses are evident in the women’s prison.
Kaemingk says their population hit a new benchmark this summer.
Kaemingk says while drug treatment is available for prisoners, it is only effective for those that want to work at it.
