A guard at the Jefferson Parish Correctional Center was arrested after authorities say he performed oral sex on an inmate jailed at the Gretna facility.
Sean Hayes, 21, of Harvey, was booked Saturday with sexual malfeasance in prison, said Capt. Jason Rivarde, spokesman for the Jefferson Parish Sheriff’s Office.
State law bans sexual intercourse or contact between law enforcement officers and those confined in prisons and jails.
The Sheriff’s Office did not identify the inmate involved but said Hayes was assigned to watch the man’s housing pod at the time.
Someone reported the encounter to jail officials Friday. Hayes confessed to the act, Rivarde said.
Hayes, who joined the Sheriff’s Office in January
, was fired after his arrest.
