Former WA juvenile detention employee re-arrested for smuggling contraband

Chehalis, WALocal News

Angel Misner, a former staff member of the Green Hill juvenile detention center, has been re-arrested on charges of smuggling THC wax into the facility. The incident occurred when she dropped off a food order that staff suspected contained a pound of the substance. Quick action by the facility staff led to the interception of the food before it reached another employee. Misner's legal troubles are compounded by previous charges of custodial sexual misconduct stemming from her alleged relationship with a 22-year-old inmate. The Chehalis Police Department is actively investigating the matter and has stated that the employee who was to receive the food is cooperating with authorities.

Assistant Secretary of Juvenile Rehabilitation, Felice Upton, praised the staff's diligence in preventing contraband from entering the facility. The incident highlights ongoing concerns about safety and security in juvenile detention centers. Further details remain undisclosed due to the active investigation.
