Mississippi ex
JACKSON, Miss. (AP) — A former Mississippi sheriff pleaded guilty Tuesday to making a false statement to FBI agents when they questioned him about requesting and receiving nude photos and videos of a female inmate and about giving her preferential treatment in the jail he supervised, federal prosecutors said.
Terry Grassaree, 61, of Macon, was sheriff of Noxubee County for eight years, until January 2020.
Grassaree used Facebook on March 5, 2019, to request a video from the inmate, and he received multiple nude images from her that day, according to an indictment of him issued last year. Grassaree sent messages back to the inmate, including, “I like it” and “Body looks perfect,” according to the indictment.
Grassaree gave the inmate benefits that others did not receive, or did not receive as often, including the use of a prohibited cellphone, tobacco and other items, the indictment said. She was also made a trusty and was given a job cooking in the jail.
