Published April 14, 2008 09:49 pm - Ex-guard faces sodomy, rape charges By Liz McMahan Phoenix Staff Writer A preliminary hearing for a former Eddie Warrior Correctional Center guard charged with sodomy and rape of an inmate will be set at an April 24 sounding docket, officials said.
Dean Craig Jimison, 49, of Fort Gibson, is free on $20,000 bond on three counts of sodomy and three counts of rape. The charges allege the offenses occurred between June 2006 and April 2007. Jimison was a sergeant and guard at the time, according to the charges. He is no longer employed at the prison, a prison employee said. The alleged offenses were revealed by the former inmate to a counselor in her sex offender treatment class, said Nikki Baker-Dotson, Muskogee County assistant district attorney. The 33-year-old woman had been serving 30 years for rape convictions from Washington County, according to Oklahoma Department of Corrections records. She also had been given 15 years on probation out of Washington County and a 10-year suspended sentence for a Tulsa County rape conviction, records show. Baker-Dotson said while the former inmate said the sexual acts were consensual, it is illegal for a person in a setting such as a prison who has control over others to engage in such acts with them, even with the victim’s consent. The sodomy charges are punishable by imprisonment for up to 10 years; the rape charges carry possible imprisonment for one to 15 years, according to court documents.
