High costs at a taxpayer-funded program for recently released female inmates started by and named for Prince George’s County Executive Jack Johnson’s wife are getting a closer look amid worries over gang and crime woes plaguing the county.

Leslie’s House, named in honor of Johnson’s wife, Leslie, was designed to ease female inmates back into society. The program has reportedly spent an average of $30,000 on each of the women during their stays, which are rarely longer than six months.
