In March 2020, Detention Officer Jorden Palmer was terminated following multiple allegations of sexual misconduct within the Graham County Detention Center. Female inmates reported that Palmer solicited sexual favors, such as exposing their breasts, in exchange for privileges like being released from their cells. Additionally, evidence revealed that Palmer sent sexually explicit text messages and nude photos to inmates. These actions contributed to a broader culture of sexual abuse within the facility, leading to his dismissal.
