KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) - A Jackson County corrections officer has been accused of taking bribes to deliver drugs to inmates.
Daniel Coach, 26, was charged Thursday in federal court with using a telephone to facilitate unlawful activity related to corruption, the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Western District of Missouri said in a news release.
An inmate reported in February that Coach would get the drugs such as Percocet, K2, ecstasy and cocaine from friends and family members of inmates, prosecutors said. He would then arrange to be placed on the inmate’s floor to deliver the drugs.
