Missouri Correction Officer Found With Meth Pipe At Work

A now former Missouri correction officer may soon find himself in a prison cell after he was found with a meth pipe in his duty belt at work.

According to court documents, 27-year-old Dallas Twyman, of Moberly, is charged with two felony drug charges. While free on bond, he must get treatment and comply with a 6 p.m. curfew.

The meth pipe was found Oct. 3 while a senior officer was conducting a pat down on Twyman as he prepared to begin a midnight shift at the Moberly Correctional Center. Residue in the pipe later tested positive for meth.

Twyman has since been fired. He told police the pipe was for his own use and not for an inmate. He said his job was stressful and that he made a “stupid decision.”
