KING COUNTY - First, it was allegations of sexual abuse by guards inside the King County Jail.
Now, we're hearing reports guards traded chocolate for sex.
And, there are allegations of drugs and alcohol for sex as well.
Three King County jailers are suspended; each under investigation for sexual misconduct inside the jail's walls.
The suspensions come after a female inmate told police one jailer forced her to have oral sex in the recreation room. She also accused another jailer of inappropriately touching her and taking a photo of her naked breast.
Investigators searched both guard's lockers, And according to court papers, inside one locker were numerous photos of nude women and "stacks" of sexually explicit letters written by female inmates.
And that's not all.
According to the court documents, two inmates claim two jail guards offered them marijuana and tequila in exchange for a show -- they thought that meant a sex act. And published reports allege those same guards offered the inmates candy bars for sex.
"Any compensation for sex, whether it's favors, candy, or money even outside the jail, is against the law, it's prostitution," says King County Sheriff's Office Spokesman John Urquhart.
Urquhart says he can't confirm if allegations of chocolate for sex are real. He told me he doesn't know.
All he will say is that investigators are now casting a bigger net.
"The investigation is expanding, but at this point we don't know how many other people are involved or if they're involved together," says Urquhart.
The Seattle Times quotes an unnamed source who's fingered five more guards involved in what appears to be a possible jail house sex ring. But, Urquhart is skeptical.
"I don't care how well the Seattle Times or newspaper outlet verifies what they're saying, if someone doesn't want to go on the record, then I'm very suspicious and I don't like it," says Urquhart.
Three guards are suspended pending the investigation. The case has been forwarded to the prosecutor's office, who got the OK from a judge to put a recording device on the female inmate to record conversations between her and the guards.
Where you gonna say something about the taste of chocolate?
Sweet vs. salty?
Just guessing...
No strawberries? :-)
You're getting to know me quite well!
Apparently he thinks that we've only been around the block one time. ;-)

LOL I thought of a couple of responses that could be read in ways that I would prefer not to have them read. One of them had something to do with the San Andreas fault. :-)
thats what I am saying...
hippies is a general term for dirty nasty smelly people for me...
LOL!!!
Naughty SSCPOW!!!
Mmmm...Dom Perignon. And I've always thought of myself as a Mad Dog 20/20 kind of girl. ;-)
You know what? I really wish I could change my screen name without re-registering. I'm proud of my husband and what he does, but I know that it's annoying for people.
MD20/20 & strawberries??? I'll try anything once...(twice if I like it)

Ask JimRob.
Maybe you can do it.
You're very sneaky. I thought you were so sweet and innocent and every day you reveal a little bit more of your naughty side.
The contradiction works well for you. :-)
I'll just leave it the way it is. After all, I'm worth the effort. ;-)
Damn Dichotomy!!

LOL Women may say that don't like it, but they do.
You are, Baby-girl, you are....
