Corrections Corp. of America Faces Lawsuit

The Corrections Corp. of America, which owns the Otter Creek Correctional Center in Wheelwright, and prison warden Jeff Little have been slapped with a lawsuit. Former recreation coordinator Delmas Johnson alleges he was wrongfully terminated from his position on March 17th. due to age discrimination and political reasons. Court documents include a problem-solving notice listing Johnson's alleged infraction as the reason for termination. The notice states, from November 23rd. through January 8, 2009, he allowed an unsupervised inmate access to restricted areas. It states he allowed the same inmate to perform unauthorized job duties within the Recreational Department from, November 20th. to January 8,2009, while officially assigned to another work location.
