History
The Cook County Jail, located on 96 acres (390,000 m2) in Cook County, Illinois, is the largest single site county jail in the United States of America housing approximately 9,800 men and women. It employs 3,800 law enforcement officials and 7,000 civilian employees.
The jail has held several infamous criminals including Al Capone, Tony Accardo, Frank Nitti, Larry Hoover, Jeff Fort, Richard Speck and John Wayne Gacy.
It was one of three sites in which executions were carried out by electrocution in Illinois. Between 1928 and 1962, the electric chair was used 67 times at the jail, including the state's last electrocution on August 24, 1962. The state's other electrocutions were carried out at the Stateville Correctional Center in Crest Hill and at the Menard Correctional Center in Chester.
