MEMPHIS, Tenn. - The best place to catch the latest movies for free may be Shelby County's Jail East. About 100 female inmates saw "The Passion of Christ" on DVD at the jail. Now, deputy jailer Steven Morrow, 36, has been charged with criminal simulation and has been suspend with pay, officials said.
After speaking with inmates, investigators searched Morrow's home and found a detailed list of DVDs for sale, including movies still in theaters.
Morrow told investigators he bought the DVDs from someone he didn't know at a local mall, the charges said.
Sheriff's spokesman Steve Shular said the inmates didn't mind the subtitles, but several complained about the silhouettes of heads at the bottom of the screen, which led investigators to believe the movie was videotaped with a camcorder in a theater.
