At approximately 0800 hours on 25 December 2010 staff observed a suspicious individual attempting to gain access to visiting processing.
The Suspect appeared to be a white male, late 60s in age, approximately 6 feet tall, weight approximately 300 pounds. The Suspect appeared to arrive on grounds in an unlicensed, non-gasoline fueled vehicle that had several unauthorized wild animals attached to the vehicle. Animals other than seeing eye dogs or personal assistant animals are not allowed on prison grounds. Vehicle was confiscated and animals impounded.
Suspect had no visiting appointment.
Suspect was wearing unacceptable attire, to wit:
Red in color (dis-allowed due to gang connection)
Excessive facial hair obscuring features
Hat, gloves, excessively large belt, which did not appear necessary
The Suspect could not produce valid picture identification
The Suspect attempted to bring non-transparent bag containing personal items into visiting room
The Suspect appeared to be intoxicated or under the influence of illegal drugs. This opinion based on the observation of suspect’s physical appearance and actions by trained observers. Suspect had rosy cheeks and red nose, characteristic of alcohol use. Suspect seemed in unusually good spirits, often laughing for no reason, characteristic of individuals under the influence of drugs.
Suspect loudly shouted repeated “HO HO HO,” probably gang-related slang referring to females.
Suspect had odor of pipe tobacco about his person, probably attempting to smuggle contraband tobacco into prisoners.
