SACRAMENTO – State corrections officials are investigating the California prison guards union for giving a paid internship to a paroled carjacker.
California Correctional Peace Officers Association President Mike Jimenez says the union was trying to do the right thing when it gave the internship to Raul Gomez. The 21-year-old was paroled in August after serving more than four years at the California Correctional Institution in Tehachapi.
The internship is being investigated by the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation and its independent inspector general.
The union has been paying to fly Gomez to and from his home in San Bernardino County to his job in the union's legislative affairs office in Sacramento. Jimenez says the internship is an effort to rehabilitate the ex-convict.
