Overview
- The case, announced Monday by the state attorney general, saw Beau Angelo and Charity Thompson turn themselves in for arraignment with $50,000 unsecured bail each.
- Prosecutors charged the pair and former inmate Vadol Lewis with corrupt organizations, conspiracy, contraband, and delivery of a controlled substance.
- Investigators say the officers brought in K2, a synthetic cannabinoid, and Suboxone, a medication for opioid use disorder, after shipments tied to Lewis arrived and CashApp payments followed.
- A criminal complaint describes admissions from both officers, details papers soaked in K2, and links the orders to Lewis’ credit card along with his calls and emails about contraband.
- Both officers no longer work for the state prison system, Lewis remains jailed in Allegheny County on unrelated charges, and the investigation is ongoing.
