A slow week on the corrupt cop front, with only yet another crooked prison guard making the roster. This is as good a time as any to remind readers to let us know about any law enforcement shenanigans in their neighborhoods. We scan all we can, but we would hate to miss something, so if there is a drug-related police corruption case festering where you are, drop us a line. That said, let's get to it: In Elizabeth City, North Carolina, Pasquotank Correctional Institution guard Angela Brown was arrested on charges of smuggling drugs into a prison, delivering drugs to an inmate, and possession of marijuana with intent to distribute, the county sheriff's office announced Monday. The office said Brown was arrested as the result of a tip received nine days earlier. She is out of jail on $25,000 bond and awaits a preliminary hearing.
