KENTUCKY -- A Wayne County Animal Control Officer is charged with allegedly leaving a dead skunk inside of a man's mailbox.
The deputy jailer, whose mailbox the skunk was placed in, had a small camera on his garage, allowing him to see the entire incident on tape.
According to court documents, Wayne County Animal Control Officer Daniel Morrow, was on the job when he left a maggot-covered, dead skunk in the deputy jailer's mailbox. He was assisted by inmate Rodney Durham, who was in a work program.
The documents say that at some point, while driving the animal control truck, they stopped and picked up the dead skunk from the side of the road, and then left it in the deputy jailer's mailbox.
Morrow has been charged with official misconduct and criminal mischief. Durham was charged with criminal mischief.
According to the Wayne County Judge Executive, Morrow is no longer an employee with the animal control office.
The deputy jailer declined to speak to LEX 18 on camera about the incident.
Both Durham and Morrow are expected to be in court September 21.
