DALLAS, GA Two Paulding County jailers were arrested Thursday and charged with sexual assault in connection with what authorities called inappropriate contact between the jailers and multiple female inmates.
LaDarius Dominique Jones, 30, and Lucas Mays, 22, were each charged with three counts of sexual assault and one count of violation of oath of office, according to a statement from the Paulding County Sheriff s Office. The charges stem from allegations made by a female inmate earlier this month that two male jailers had initiated inappropriate sexual contact with her, according to the statement.
