US prison arrests over sex-for-contraband ends in a shoot-out
The agents were trying to arrest six guards at the Federal Detention Centre in Tallahassee, Florida on charges that included giving prisoners alcohol and other contraband in exchange for sex and money, an investigator said.
One of the indicted guards opened fire and was shot dead, FBI spokesman Jeff Westcott said. An agent from the Justice Department’s Office of the Inspector General was also killed, he said.
