On Tuesday, KETV got an exclusive look inside the Historic Squirrel Cage Jail in Council Bluffs, a rotating jail built in 1885 that once held up to 60 inmates in a 90,000 lb metal cage.

Tour guide Trudy Beno explained the site features original graffiti and a kitchen used by the jailor’s wife—details that mark its unique past until its closing in 1969.

Tuesday marked 10 years since Omaha police officer Kerrie Orozco was killed in the line of duty — a legacy honored by the Community Foundation for Western Iowa through its annual memorial scholarship.
