Visitor arrested at Putnamville Correctional Facility
Lakeishia Kimbrough, 24, from Indianapolis, Indiana was arrested at the Putnamville Correctional Facility on Thursday, December 18, 2008.
Staff was alerted that Kimbrough might attempt to traffick with offender Brian Eines during a visit. Based on the information, it was determined that the visit would be closely monitored. Correctional staff did observe Kimbrough pass something to Eines during the visit and notified Supervisory staff. At completion of the visit, Eines was searched and staff recovered 2 cell phones, marijuana, tobacco, a phone charger and rolling papers.
The Indiana State Police was immediately notified and they responded immediately. Kimbrough was placed under arrest and charged with Possession of Marijuana- a Class A Misdemeanor, with possible charges for Trafficking with an Inmate and Dealing Marijuana, both Class A misdemeanors. Kimbrough is currently being held at the Putnam County Jail.
Brian Eines, 24, from Indianapolis, Indiana, is currently being held in Segregation, at the Facility, pending an investigation that could result in disciplinary action and additional outside charges. Eines is serving a sentence for Possession of a Firearm, Class D Felony, with a projected release date of May 16, 2013.
“We would not have the ability to catch those attempting to break the law in our facilities with out the diligent efforts of staff. I commend the Correctional Officers for their excellent security practices, and, hope that this serves as a lesson to those contemplating to traffick in the facility,” stated Bruce Lemmon, Superintendent.
