NEW CASTLE, Ind.Jan 31 2009 – A guard at a state prison in New Castle faces charges that he helped an inmate escape by silencing a door alarm at a minimum security dorm.
The Indiana Department of Correction says that 38-year-old Maurice Melton of Indianapolis has been suspended without pay from his job at the New Castle Correctional Facility following his arrest on a felony charge of aiding an escape.
Melton works for The GEO Group, the company that operates the prison.
He was being held in the Henry County Jail. Melton is accused of helping inmate Jeffery Kinartail of McCordsville leave the dorm Thursday night and then drive him to Indianapolis.
Kinartail was serving a sentence for cocaine dealing and was arrested early Friday at an Indianapolis motel.
Prison officials say Melton expected to be paid for helping in the escape.

Housman had been disciplined at work earlier in the day, and when he confronted his girllfriend, a Noblesville dispatcher, at about 5 p.m., he recorded audio of their meeting.
Cronk said police listened to that tape and used it to determine that Housman, a SWAT team sniper shooter, had shot himself in the head.
A police-issue gun was found near his body.
Housman, who was working undercover, was driving an unmarked police pickup truck and was wearing his police badge around his neck at the time of his death.
An autopsy is being conducted today, Cronk said.
