Trio of corrections officers fired over charges they mistreated inmates at Lucasville prison.
By Jo Ingles - June 9, 2006
Three Southern Ohio Correctional Facility prison guards have been fired from their jobs. In an interview with Ohio Public Radio’s Jo Ingles, Andrea Dean of the state corrections department explains the trio were removed over allegations that they mistreated inmates.

In addition to losing their jobs, the corrections officers could be in legal hot water. They are being investigated for a misdemeanor crime of misconduct while supervising an inmate.
