DATE OF INTERVIEW 1.27.2020
Investigation Initiation and Discovery:
* The investigation began on November 6, 2018, when Special Agent Henry Lewis III was notified by SAC Donald Jones about a compromised staff member at Baldwin State Prison.
* A cell phone was discovered in the prison's Dormitory G-3 shower area, hidden in a wall. This phone was linked to various illegal activities, including communications between inmates and staff.
Involvement of Inmates and Staff:
* The primary user of the contraband phone was identified as inmate Trenton Alexander Freeman, with Travarious Jackson as a secondary user. The phone contained evidence of their involvement in fraudulent credit card activities and drug transactions.
* Correctional Officer Lagenne Burton was implicated in the scheme. She was approached by inmate Freeman to participate in illegal monetary transactions. She received money from Freeman's mother, Flora Freeman, and was instructed to transfer it for the purchase of contraband.
Burton's Admission and Charges:
* During an interview, Burton admitted to her involvement, initially believing her actions weren't seriously wrong. She confirmed her Cash App account was used to receive and send money as directed by inmate Freeman.
* Burton was arrested and charged with conspiracy and violation of oath, in accordance with O.C.G.A. 16-4-8 and O.C.G.A. 16-10-1. She was detained at the Baldwin County Detention Center.
Case Status and Evidence Handling:
* Special Agent Lewis requested the case be classified as substantiated and moved to a closed status, pending further court proceedings and potential new developments.
* No evidence from this case was stored at the GDC North Region Evidence Room, nor was any submitted to the GBI DOFS Crime Lab. No further investigative actions were reported at the time of the summary.
