Summary
Former East Baton Rouge Parish corrections officer Elijah Christopher just pleaded guilty to malfeasance in office — the key charge tied to alleged inmate abuse — avoiding jail time with a suspended five-year sentence and three years of probation. His terms include anger management, mental health treatment, drug/alcohol abstinence, employment or education requirements, and a firearm ban. He also faces a $500 fine and over $400 in court costs, plus loss of his POST certification. The three battery charges were dropped. His probation review is set for February 2027.
