Frio County officials said they didn’t check the background of the 25-year-old consultant they hired to turn things around at their jail, which had been shut down by the state for failing to meet standards in 2015.
They contracted with Jordan Jericho Bautista-Gunter and his obscure Pflugerville firm, at $100,000 a month. The jail was reopened and he seemed to be improving things. A couple of months into the contract, though, he was accused of sexual harassment.And then, federal agents arrested him again, accusing him of transporting prisoners on commercial airliners around the country while carrying a gun.
On Friday, Senior U.S. District Judge David Alan Ezra sentenced Bautista-Gunter to 65 months in federal prison for being a prohibited person who possessed a firearm, and for illegally carrying a gun on a commercial airliner.
A prosecutor said Bautista-Gunter flew with prisoners 21 times. Federal officials did not indicate where the prisoners came from. Bautista-Gunter’s lawyer said he was doing it as a service for Hays County. Hays County officials could not be reached late Friday to confirm it.
