A prison chaplain who smuggled cigarettes, Gucci sunglasses, and pornographic magazines to a Pennsylvania inmate will spend the next few years reporting to a federal probation officer.
On Jan. 14 in Scranton, US District Judge Robert D. Mariani placed Ericjon Thomas, 46, on three years of probation for receiving bribes from an inmate inside the high-security US Penitentiary Canaan in Waymart.
Thomas also surrendered $15,000 to federal authorities in 2019. FBI agents estimated he received $12,000 to $15,000 in bribes that were paid by the unnamed prisoner’s girlfriend between March 2016 and February 2017 in exchange for smuggling contraband into the penitentiary.
