A Miami-Dade Corrections officer was arrested for an alleged battery of an inmate, officials said.
Myth Louis-Jeune, 36, is facing the charge in the alleged incident that happened around March 1, 2023, court records showed.
Further details about the alleged incident weren’t available.
The Miami-Dade Corrections and Rehabilitation Department said in a statement Monday that the arrest was made after an investigation into “alleged staff misconduct involving an in-custody inmate,” and that the investigation involved other law enforcement agencies.
“This action reflects our unwavering commitment to accountability and to maintaining the public trust,” the statement reads, in part. “MDCR takes all allegations of employee misconduct seriously. The actions of one individual do not reflect the professionalism, dedication, and daily service demonstrated by the men and women of our department. We remain committed to the highest standards of public safety, transparency, and ethical conduct in service to our community.”
