A Corrections Corporal at the Tecumseh Prison has been suspended without pay after being arrested by the Nebraska State Patrol.
Authorities say 21 year old Sarah Murillo was arrested just before 10:00 on Friday at the Tecumseh State Correctional Institute for Unauthorized Communication with a Prisoner.
The State Patrol's investigation into Murillo's activities is ongoing. She has been an employee at Tecumseh since July, 18 2016.
Nebraska Correctional Services Director Scott Frakes says he will not stand for these kinds of actions. “The introduction of contraband can lead to a variety of security breaches and will not be tolerated. Maintaining appropriate boundaries is a key component to safety and security.”
