Inmates in sex assault case get hearing to leave prison
The two Butler County Prison inmates who claim they were sexually assaulted in the prison will get their day in court.
County President Judge Thomas Doerr today scheduled a hearing for a
petition by two inmates wanting to be released after reporting a prison
food service vendor worker had assaulted them.
During the hearing, which will be June 7, the inmates’ attorney,
Michael Pisanchyn, will present a case for his clients, who allege
vendor worker Luis Quinones, 27, of Butler had inappropriate sexual
contact with them.
Pisanchyn said his clients need to be removed from the prison because that is where they were traumatized.
Following the accusations, Quinones was charged with institutional
sexual assault, criminal attempt of institutional sexual assault and
indecent assault.
Quinones, a Trinity Services Group employee, worked in the prison kitchen, but has since been removed from the prison.
