Suspended
employee resigns after inmate released in error
The Division’s
specific procedures for inmate releases were violated during
Clanton’s release.
Clanton was
released July 14 from Odom Correctional Institution at the
completion of his sentence but should have been turned over to the
custody of the Halifax County Jail, since he has multiple pending
charges for breaking and entering and is awaiting trial as a
habitual felon.
Clanton was
charged Monday by the Roanoke Rapids Police Department with a rape
that occurred Friday afternoon and charged by the Halifax County
Sheriff’s Office with breaking into a home in Weldon that same day.
Officers arrested Clanton Friday night and found him in possession
of items stolen from the home in Weldon.
