The state's probe into sexual abuse allegations in the Texas youth prison system resulted in the firing of a correctional officer when investigators discovered he was a convicted sex offender.
David Andrew Lewis, 23, was fired Wednesday from the Texas Youth Commission's Coke County Juvenile Justice Center, several newspapers reported. The all-male facility, which is run by the private contractor GEO Group, is about 30 miles northeast of San Angelo in the town of Bronte.
