A former Riley County Jail corrections officer made her first appearance Friday in Riley County District Court for a case charging her with trafficking contraband into a correctional facility.
Ashley Britt, 24, of Manhattan is charged with eight counts of trafficking contraband in the Riley County Jail between Sep. 20 and Oct. 1 last year. A document filed with the court lists the contraband items as food, nicotine, headphones, hair ties, a comb and condiments.
Kansas Bureau of Investigation agents arrested Britt for the alleged offenses on April 10 and booked her into the Geary County jail before releasing her on an $8,000 bond later the same day.
