No Charges To Be Filed Against Guard Or Accuser

Gavel web 3

No charges will be filed in the case of a southeast Texas prison guard and a Houston woman

who accused him of groping her. Sylvia Hidalgo claimed the guard molested her as she

visited the Goodman Unit in Jasper earlier this year. Investigators said her story did not add

up, and asked the Jasper County grand jury to consider misdemeanor official oppression

charges against the officer and felony tampering charges against Hidalgo. The grand jury

has declined to indict either Hidalgo or the officer, who has since resigned.
