(Alabama)- According to the United States Drug Enforcement Administration, a former correctional officer with the Alabama Department of Corrections (ADOC). On September 9, 2024, Guice, a 46-year-old Montgomery resident, was sentenced to 75 months in federal prison for his involvement in a conspiracy to smuggle illegal drugs into a prison. Notably, federal inmates are not eligible for parole.

The case dates back to June 20, 2023, when an ADOC officer and his canine conducted a routine sniff search of all vehicles in the parking lot of the Staton Correctional Facility, located in Elmore County. The canine alerted officers to Guice’s vehicle, prompting a search. At the time, Guice was working inside the facility. Upon inspection, investigators discovered three bags of suspected methamphetamine inside his car. A further search revealed two additional bags of the drug in Guice’s pockets. Subsequent analysis confirmed the substance to be methamphetamine.

During a plea hearing in May 2024, Guice admitted to possessing methamphetamine with the intent to distribute the illegal drug. He also confessed to conspiring with another individual to smuggle the drugs into the prison. The investigation led to the indictment of Brad Elliot Gordon, a 48-year-old inmate at Staton Correctional Facility, for his alleged role in the conspiracy. Gordon’s trial is scheduled for February 3, 2025.

It is important to note that an indictment is merely an allegation, and all defendants, including Gordon, are presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
