John Lenkey

Warden - Fayette County Jail

John Lenkey is the current Warden of the Fayette County Jail. He has over twenty- three years of correctional experience and thirteen of those have been in multiple Maximum Correctional Facilities holding leadership roles. John was appointed to the role of Warden at the same time a brand-new jail was being constructed. This presented a unique opportunity, and he quickly realized culture change was not just necessary, but inevitable. Starting from the ground up, he began to create an environment in which his employees could be their best. John’s commitment and belief in the process made this happen, and he believes it can happen anywhere.
