Three face charges related to effort to smuggle cell phone equipment into jail
MOBILE, Alabama (WALA) — A now-fired Mobile County corrections deputy, a convicted murder and that defendant’s wife have been indicted on charges relating to an alleged contraband-and-bribery scheme at the county’s lockup.
The indictments and authorities allege that Prichard resident Danell Michael Davis, who pleaded guilty to murder last year and is awaiting sentencing, arranged for a cell phone, charger and batteries to be sent to him.
Mobile County Chief Assistant District Attorney Keith Blackwood told FOX10 News that Davis, 29, paid $500 to Taeric Montez Sims, 26, a corrections deputy who since has been fired.
