A former correctional officer at MDC is also charged with attempting to smuggle contraband, including marijuana and cigarettes, into the notorious jail, which currently houses a number of high-profile figures including Diddy.
A further 16 people, including an MS-13 gang associate, are facing charges relating to violent assaults and fraud inside the facility.
Taxstone is accused of orchestrating a plan with five other inmates to smuggle drugs, cigarettes, a scalpel and other banned items into MDC between April and June 2024.
“In several voice recordings found on [a contraband cell phone], Campbell explained his method of throwing a ‘line’ out of a window of MDC-Brooklyn for a co-conspirator on the outside to ‘hook’ or attach contraband, which could then be pulled back inside,” a press release reads.
