Allenwood Inmate Faces Assault Charges
An Allenwood inmate has been charged with assaulting another inmate at the United States Penitentiary at Allenwood, Pennsylvania.
According to federal prosecutors, Christopher Charles, 30, allegedly assaulted another inmate on June 26, 2012, causing the victim to suffer serious bodily injury.
The case was investigated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and is being prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney William Simmers.
Charles faces a maximum penalty of 10 years imprisonment, a term of supervised release following imprisonment, and a fine if found guilty.
A grand jury in Williamsport returned an indictment on September 11 charging Charles with the assault.
It is essential to note that an indictment is only an allegation, and Charles is presumed innocent until proven guilty in court.
