QUEENS, N.Y. — A former city Corrections officer will likely end up behind bars after she admitted Thursday to having sex with an inmate and selling Ecstasy, cigarettes and booze while she worked on Rikers Island, officials said.
Clara Espada, 41, pleaded guilty to third-degree bribe receiving — a D-class felony — and misdemeanor forcible touching.
A criminal complaint says Espada had sex three times with a male inmate, who has not been named.
He told investigators he slept with the officer and helped broker deals that netted the woman nearly $300 a week over four months, court documents show.
