ELMORE, AL (WSFA) - Five Staton Correctional Facility correctional officers were arrested last week following a three-month investigation, the Alabama Department of Corrections announced Tuesday.


The correctional officers are accused of using their positions at the prison, located in Elmore, for personal gain.


 The officers were identified as:



  • Joshua Alexander, 26, of Hayneville

  • Ronald Dickerson, 23, of Montgomery

  • Patrick Jones, 42, of Montgomery

  • Leonard Scott, 31, of Montgomery

  • Jarod McDowell, 29, of Wetumpka


According to prison officials, all of the officers except Jones have resigned.
