Young Male Raped By Female County Correctional Officer

By Joe Nelson, The Sun Posted: 10/23/13, 12:57 PM PDT | Updated: 1 day ago SAN BERNARDINO >> A San Bernardino County Probation Corrections Officer was arrested Wednesday on suspicion of raping a teenage male detainee at juvenile hall, according to the Probation Department. Latavia Davis, 30, of Menifee was arrested at her place of work, the Central Juvenile Detention and Assessment Center in San Bernardino, and booked into the Central Detention Center in San Bernardino on suspicion of forcible sexual penetration with someone under age 18. She was being held in lieu of $100,000 bail, and is scheduled to be arraigned Friday in San Bernardino Superior Court, sheriff’s spokeswoman Cindy Bachman said. The alleged victim reported the alleged sexual misconduct, which is reported to have occurred on Friday. It triggered the criminal investigation, police said. The Probation Department launched its own internal affairs investigation on Tuesday. Probation department spokesman Chris Condon said it was a combination of the reporting party’s statements and evidence gleaned from security cameras at juvenile hall that ultimately led to Davis’ arrest. “Within our institutions we have good supervision practices pertaining to the minors in custody and the staff supervising them,” Condon said. “Whenever any type of conduct that is occurring between staff and juveniles is noticed, and if it’s something that is outside of what we feel is the appropriate amount of contact, then we’ll look into it.” Chief Probation Officer Michelle Scray said in a statement that Davis’ alleged actions constituted the most egregious of conduct for someone entrusted with the supervision of minors. http://www.dailybulletin.com/general-news/20131023/san-bernardino-probation-corrections-officer-arrested-for-alleged-sexual-misconduct-with-juvenile-ward

Raped at Eastern Mississippi Correctional Facility in Meridian, MS

Private Prisons . I Was Raped at East Mississippi Correctional Facility By Anonymous Prisoner, East Mississippi Correctional Facility at 2:20pm My name is ______ and I am 23 years old and although my past criminal record isn't at its best, at heart I'm still a great kid! After being locked up for about six months, I suffered from something many young males would hate to speak on and that's rape. I was raped at Eastern Mississippi Correctional Facility in Meridian, MS. I was beat brutally and faced several facial and rectum injuries from this attack. I was raped, robbed, and assaulted by several other prisoners was held hostage due to the attack in a cell. I was threatened with knives and tormented by these inmates for several hours. I was raped from 11:30pm @nite until 3:30am in the morning by one other prisoner. As he raped me continuously all I could do was cry because one false move and I knew this guy would take my life. After being a victim of rape by another male I am suffering still from anxiety, depression and stress issues because of this attack. I fault the reason that I'm in prison today. If I had one wish I would wish that I never violated the law and shoplifting, which is what got me in prison. I've always wanted to live a normal life and hang out with friends and enjoy. But due to this tragic incident that happened to me all I want to do is speak out to others that are suffering from what I went through and let them know it's okay to speak up and tell someone because no one should be violated of their sexual personal space. I was hurt very badly and sometimes I feel like it's my fault but at the end of the day I know it wasn't. Again my name is ______ and I too was a victim of rape.
