WASHINGTON (AP) — In a story April 30 about a corrections officer smuggling contraband into a Washington jail, The Associated Press, relying on information from the U.S. Attorney’s Office, reported erroneously that the charged individual, Lenard Fleming, was a current employee of the Corrections Corporation of America, which runs the jail facility. The company says Fleming was terminated Feb. 11.
