Description: Maricopa County Sheriff Paul Penzone says a detention officer was arrested for attempting to bring meth and fentanyl into the Lower Buckeye Jail. Andres Salazar is the officer accused of several felony counts related to these accusations, Penzone said during a press conference on Jan. 11. The officer has been with the department since 2019. Penzone says money was exchanged in the parking lot of the jail before attempting to bring it in. He adds this was likely the officer's first time trying this. Penzone says he's at a stage where he's calling for the purchase of scanning machines for all jails to check for any incoming contraband in Maricopa County. Those machines cost $165,985 each.
