Synopsis as reported by the agency
On September 26. 2024 Lt. Blaufuss was assigned as the Shift Commander. She received and read a special custody report from another officer stating that an Incarcerated Person wished to speak with Internal Affairs about their safety within the facility and the whereabouts of a gun hidden within the facility. Lt. Blaufuss failed to report this to her superiors and shredded the report, only mentioning it when asked by the Administrator of the Facility if she received a report about a gun within the Facility.
