A Mississippi attorney looked manic and wet in his mug shot photo after he was arrested for smuggling contraband into prison.
Daniel Sidney Dale allegedly posed as legal counsel for Hinds County detainees for whom he would sneak in cellphones and other illegal items, according to the Hinds County Sheriff’s Office.
While visiting inmates on Thursday, Dale was caught with a briefcase full of marijuana, tobacco products, scales and two cellphones with chargers, photos released by the sheriff’s office showed.
“Attorney Dale, in a trusted position responsible for the constitutional rights of arrested suspects, jeopardized the safety and integrity of the Hinds County Detention Facilities and the public,” Hinds County Sheriff Tyree Jones said in a statement.
Dale was detained, questioned and later arrested.
The attorney appeared sopping wet in a gray suit and loosened tie with his eyes bulging out of his skull below his combover in his mug shot.
Dale is charged with three counts of introduction of contraband to a correctional facility and two counts of conspiracy.
Jones said the investigation is ongoing and additional charges and arrests could be forthcoming.
