Jail employee accused of robbing inmate

A Dekalb County jail employee is accused of stealing from an inmate. 19-year old Jess House of Fort Payne was charged with third-degree theft after it was reported that an inmate's property, worth about $175, was missing. House has already resigned as a corrections officer and was released from jail on a $500 bond. House returned the stolen items to the sheriff's office and the items will be returned to the inmate's family, since the inmate has already moved on to a state prison.
