Losing Your Job Over A Criminal: Jail Guard Arrested On Duty For Trying To Sneak Burrito To Inmate Then Allegedly Smashed In The Cell!
"MDC Corrections Officer Chevonne Culbreath was taken into custody at the Metropolitan Detention Center, accused of having an inappropriate relationship with an inmate currently in custody at MDC.
According to a criminal complaint, Culbreath and an inmate were having intimate encounters with each other over the last month or so. The most recent incident involved the inmate and Culbreath entering a closet and engaging in sexual acts. We are not naming the inmate, but he has been in MDC since April 2024. He does have an extensive violent criminal record ranging from aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, negligent use of deadly weapon (discharge), stolen vehicles, child abuse, and battery on a police officer.
MDC leadership was made aware of the alleged relationship on Tuesday, September 17. The allegations were immediately reported to the Bernalillo County Sheriff’s Office (BCSO) and an investigation was initiated. As a result, Culbreath was removed from her post, placed under arrest, and was transported from MDC property in handcuffs. She was taken to BCSO headquarters to be interviewed and was later transported back to MDC for booking Tuesday evening.
“MDC leadership is deeply disappointed by the alleged actions of this corrections officer, which have undermined the integrity and trust we strive to uphold within our institution. Behavior of this nature will not be tolerated, and we are committed to ensuring that corrupt officers are swiftly identified and removed from our ranks,” says MDC Warden Kai Smith.
Culbreath is also accused of receiving contraband from a person outside the facility, with the intention of smuggling the substance. The criminal complaint states, Culbreath got in contact with the inmate’s “baby momma” at a local Walmart to receive a breakfast burrito. Inside the burrito was THC wax for the inmate." - Cop Watch On YT
