FLORIDA -Five Orange County jail corrections officers are under criminal investigation for staging fights between inmates. A criminal and internal investigation opened Friday after another corrections officer reported the incident. Sources said corrections officers scheduled the fights to resolve inmate disputes. While inmates fought in the cells, other inmates cheered. Investigators were trying to figure out if any bets were made during the fights. One man said his son was beaten during one of the alleged fights. "They were the ultimate fights. Go in a cell for three minutes and then in some cases four people. Two on two, but it ended up being three on one," he said. The five corrections officers have been moved to desk duty while the investigation is conducted. |
