The Hidalgo County Sheriff’s Office has arrested a man for allegedly stealing medication from inmates at the county’s Adult Detention Center. Forty-eight-year-old Jaime Mata was arrested Friday and charged with diversion of a controlled substance and altering a government record.
Investigators say surveillance video showed Mata taking prescribed medication from inmates’ pill containers and altering records to try to cover up the theft. Mata was working as a licensed vocational nurse at the detention center at the time of the alleged thefts.
