Former DJJ Supervisor Indicted

Columbia, SC (WOLO) —A former supervisor at the state’s Juvenile Prison is accused of ordering guards to *hog-tie two inmates* because they were reportedly making too much noise.

The US Attorney’s Office says Lieutenant Nicole Samples knew that The Department of Juvenile Justice banned tying inmates legs to their arms as a form of punishment.

According to officials, Samples is also accused of trying to convince the guards to *lie to investigators* about what happened.
