Retired NJ state prison employee charged with smuggling tobacco
A retired New Jersey state prison employee is accused of smuggling tobacco into Trenton state prison in exchange for thousands of dollars in bribes, prosecutors said.
Alan Slaton, 63, an institutional training instructor at the prison, is charged with official misconduct and accepting bribes after prosecutors said he smuggled tobacco into Trenton state prison. It is not clear if Slaton is linked to a massive tobacco smuggling ring broken up by authorities last year.
