John Dix, a 35-year-old corrections officer at the Pine Prairie ICE Processing Center, was arrested on Jan. 30 after authorities caught him with a stash of illegal narcotics while on duty, officials said. A search turned up nine MDMA pills, five Suboxone tablets, 7.25 grams of meth, and a glass pipe—evidence that put him in handcuffs.
