Placeholder Image
A man with a history of rage issues was given another year behind bars after he attacked a jail guard because he didn’t want to return to his cell after recess.The inmate, Jamichael James Nicholson-Mark, 26, was charged with assault on an officer for an attack that happened in the A-block of Warren County Jail. He accepted a plea bargain this week and was given a one-year sentence which he will serve in addition to any other jail time he owes the state.“Recreation time ended and I went to put him back into his cell,” recalled corrections officer Lynn Wilcher.The inmate did not want to return to his cell and ignored the officer’s orders.“I told him repeatedly to get back in his cell,” Wilcher said in his warrant against the inmate. “He stated on numerous occasions he was not going back into his cell.”The inmate then grabbed the doors on his cell to prevent the officer from putting him behind bars.
