MANHATTAN SUPREME COURT — A Manhattan corrections officer was charged with using her cell phone to contact her gang-member boyfriend at Rikers Island while on the job, in violation of numerous Department of Correction rules.

Prosecutors said Manhattan Detention Center guard Rosalyn Wilkes, 43, was arrested Monday morning and charged with five counts of promoting prison contraband.

Her illicit contact with the male inmate was dangerous conduct that "created a security threat and potentially put the lives of her colleagues and charges at risk," Assistant District Attorney Charles Linehan said.

Wilkes was released without bail after pleading not guilty to the charges at her arraignment in Manhattan Supreme Court on Monday. She was arrested in the morning.

She "repeatedly received calls from and engaged in extensive conversation with the Rikers Island inmate while the defendant was supposed to be working at her assigned post," Linehan said.
