Summary
This document is a criminal Information filed on August 28, 2013, charging James McKinnon, a Correctional Officer at Big Spring Correctional Center (BSCC), with Misprision of a Felony. McKinnon is accused of concealing the fact that correctional officers in the 'Flight Line Unit' falsified logs regarding mandatory 30-minute rounds on August 22-23, 2012. Despite the mention of 'Flight Line,' this refers to a housing unit within the prison (located on a former airbase), not actual aircraft operations.
