PRISON GUARD CHARGED WITH SMUGGLING FOR INMATES

THORNBURY - A Delaware County prison guard turned herself in 
yesterday on charges of supplying inmates with cigarettes, alcohol 
and marijuana, authorities said.

Lisa Clark, 27, of Philadelphia, was caught in April with 13 packs of 
cigarettes, according to an incident report from the George W. Hill 
Correctional Facility. She later admitted to Delaware County 
detectives that she had been smuggling marijuana, cigarettes and 
alcohol into the prison to sell to inmates, authorities said.

If convicted of the felony charge of smuggling controlled substances 
into a state facility, Clark could be sentenced to a minimum of two 
years in prison. Clark was suspended without pay pending a 
disciplinary hearing, according to the incident report.
