SEX ABUSE OF A MINOR INMATE NOT CHARGED– State v. Mr. M (DMC No. 6881) (Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office DR No. 06-196157): Mr. M was a Detention Officer working at the Durango Street Juvenile Jail when he was assigned to a suicide watch of a young male inmate. The inmate made allegations to the Doctors at the hospital that Mr. M had touched his buttocks several times, said that he ”loved him” and  tried to kiss him. After the Officer was put on paid leave, we became involved. We brought in Mr. M to be interview by Detectives, and we also agreed to submit to a lie detector test. We also presented them with a copy of a past polygraph test which we had independently administered. The Maricopa County Attorney’s Office ultimately declined to press charges and Mr. M later went and honorably served in the United States Army.
