Five officers and one captain, who has since retired, face charges of unlawful imprisonment, illegal strip searches and falsifying documents, according to sources. According to sources, authorities are alleging that at least one guard molested a woman during a strip search at the Tombs, and the captain and other supervisors covered up the heinous act. The officers, who sources said are women, are expected to turn themselves in at 8 a.m. Monday. The Department of Correction told the Daily News it was looking into the allegations. |
