Former Big Sandy Guard Pleads Not Guilty
KENTUCKY....
Doug Muncy, a former guard at the Big Sandy Regional Detention Center pleaded not guilty Monday in Johnson District Court to a misdemeanor charge of sexual abuse. As part of a wide-ranging state police and auditor's investigation at the Paintsville jail, which serves Johnson, Lawrence, Magoffin and Martin counties, Muncy was charged last month with second-degree sexual abuse of an inmate. He was fired in February after being reprimanded several times for exposing himself to inmates and coworkers. Muncy is scheduled for a pre-trial conference on August 4th.
