Former Morgan County, Alabama, jail officer Jarvis Moore faces seven felony extortion charges tied to taking honey buns and other commissary items from inmates. Moore admits he took the items but says he was following jail practices to discipline inmates who caused problems. He says the charges are retaliation over his support for releasing a video showing a man who died in custody. The sheriff says Moore was under investigation even before then.
