I love that building and was lucky enough to be able to go inside a couple of years ago. I started work with Henrico Recreation and Parks not long after the department moved to the Government Center on Parham. I heard a lot of great stories about the old courthouse. It was nice to see Mr. LeVecchia and Chuck Peple in the video. I'm so glad this popped up on my feed.
Oh my! I spent a night in the lockup there, in the early 1970s. I was partying at a friend's apartment on Horsepen and we were loaded and decided to take a dip in the pool, which was closed. When the cops arrived, I was one who didn't get away in time. Next morning in court I was shocked to get a 30-day sentence. The jailers changed their entry to make it look like I'd served my sentence while awaiting trial... "I know you don't want to get that hair cut...." and they let me walk out!!! True but long story made short.
