CHEATHAM COUNTY, Tenn. (CLARKSVILLENOW) -The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation (TBI) has obtained indictments for a now former correctional officer at the Cheatham County Jail, who is accused of abusing his position to introduce contraband into the facility.
TBI Agents began investigating Drew Perry Mansfield (DOB 4-16-92) of Clarksville on July 13. They discovered that, on several occasions earlier this year, Mansfield brought contraband inside the county jail to give to inmates. He was fired after the discovery.
A release from TBI did not say what the contraband was.
On Monday, the Cheatham County Grand Jury returned indictments, charging the Mansfield with three counts of Official Misconduct, three counts of Introduction of Contraband into a Penal Facility, and one count of Conspiracy to Commit Introduction of Contraband into a Penal facility.
He was arrested Thursday and booked him into the Cheatham County Jail on $10,000 bond.
