(Westville, IN) - A prison guard in Westville is accused of taking money from an inmate to bring marijuana into the facility.

 

Lauren Bush, 30, is charged with bribery and official misconduct.

 

According to authorities, she and an inmate at Westville Correctional Facility last week discussed the plans to bring him marijuana and a cell phone.
