Three former York County Corrections Officers are facing criminal charges after a grand jury believed sufficient evidence was found showing that they accepted money from a jailed prisoner in exchange for smuggling contraband into the York County Jail.

According to information released by the York County Sheriff’s Office, the investigation began earlier this year after the department received tips that multiple corrections officers had taken payments from an inmate. Investigators alleged that the officers agreed to bring the requested items into the jail in exchange for cash. Authorities say the alleged plan was uncovered and stopped before any contraband actually made it inside the facility.

The three accused officers had each worked at the jail for roughly a year and a half. During the course of the investigation, all three resigned from their positions. The sheriff’s department confirmed that no arrests or court summonses had been issued at the time of the press release, but emphasized that the indictments themselves reflect that the evidence supports criminal charges.

A Texas corrections officer lost his job and is facing charges for allegedly bringing contraband, in the form of chicken wings, into the facility for an inmate who reportedly paid him for the alleged transaction.

According to reports, a 25-year-old man, who began working last summer as a corrections officer at the Travis County Correctional Complex in Austin, recently became embroiled in a situation involving an inmate who was housed in the facility. The inmate allegedly proposed a deal where the officer would be paid if he agreed to bring him chicken wings from Wingstop, and it was believed that the officer reportedly agreed to the terms. Correctional facilities are allowed to monitor the telephone communications of certain inmates, and things went awry when a Security Threat Intelligence Unit officer was listening in on a call that the inmate made to a family member.

It was reported that during the chat, the inmate shared the alleged plan to satisfy his craving for wings. He reportedly said he convinced an officer to get them for him by sending him $50.00 on CashApp. The authorities began investigating the situation, and they watched surveillance video that showed a food delivery driver dropping off a bag of chicken wings at the facility. The corrections officer retrieved it and ate some of them before allegedly giving the inmate a portion on a paper towel.

A Georgia teen incarcerated for allegedly engaging in bestiality with the family dog had additional charges added after he reportedly struck a fellow inmate for making animal sounds.

According to reports, at the end of May, an 18-year-old from Monroe County left the house to take the family dog for a walk. His family believed he had been gone for longer than they expected, and his sister went to look for them. She found them in the yard, and her brother reportedly had his pants pulled down. She said it appeared as if he was trying to make the Great Dane have intercourse with him, and she told their parents what she believed she saw.

The family notified the authorities about the situation, and an investigator from the Monroe County Sheriff’s Department went to the home. They spoke to the man’s family, who told them that this was not the first time he had sexual relations with an animal. They claimed that in addition to the current incident with the dog, he also did sexual things with a donkey in the past.
