An inmate who was released from a Kansas prison last year is heading back, after his conviction for trying to smuggle methamphetamine into the facility.

A judge in Leavenworth County sentenced Eric Rhymes to more than four years in prison for his conviction on a charge of trafficking contraband into the Lansing Correctional Facility.

Officials say Mr. Rhymes, 33, was an inmate and “picture porter” at the facility in November of 2014. The picture porter was allowed into the visitors room to take photographs of inmates with visitors. Staff members found 14 balls of methamphetamine in the visitors room, stashed in the cut fingers of a rubber glove. The contraband was found in a coat that had the lining cut out of it

Surveillance video showed Mr. Rhymes repeatedly placing items in the coat. Officials say he then confessed to the crime.

A jury found him guilty last December, and earlier this week a judge sentenced Mr Rhymes to 53 months in prison.
