Rudy Ramon, Sexual Abuse with a Ward, Texas 2016

Former Correctional Officer at FCI Fort Worth Faces Up to 15 Years in Federal Prison

FORT WORTH, Texas — A former correctional officer at the Federal Bureau of Prisons (BOP) Federal Correctional Institute (FCI) Fort Worth pleaded guilty this morning in federal court to one count of sexual abuse with a ward, announced U.S. Attorney John Parker of the Northern District of Texas.

Rudy Ramon, 54, of Grand Prairie, Texas, entered his plea before U.S. Magistrate Judge Jeffrey L. Cureton. He faces a maximum statutory penalty of 15 years in federal prison and a $250,000 fine. Ramon will remain on bond pending sentencing, which is set for February 18, 2016, before U.S. District Judge Terry R. Means.

According to documents filed in the case, on the first or second Sunday of November 2014, Ramon engaged in a sex act with an individual who was an inmate assigned to FCI Fort Worth. At the time of the sex act, the inmate was under the custodial, supervisory, or disciplinary authority of Ramon, a BOP Correctional Officer.

The investigation is being conducted by the Department of Justice Office of the Inspector General. Assistant U.S. Attorney Brian Poe is prosecuting the case.

The incident, which occurred in 2014, is a stark reminder of the trust that is broken when those in positions of authority abuse their power.

Rudy Ramon is facing up to 15 years in prison and a $250,000 fine for his crimes. His sentencing is set for February 18, 2016.
