A lawsuit filed Tuesday in Valencia County makes some jaw-dropping claims against two corrections department workers. “It involves a captain of the prison raping an inmate systematically over a period of months,” Attorney Matthew Coyte said. The inmate’s attorney said Captain Kenneth Carrejo raped his client while he was locked up at the Central New Mexico Correctional Facility in Los Lunas in early 2011 as he was finishing up a six year sentence on drug charges. “My client was a victim of his predatory nature,” said Coyte.
