KANSAS CITY, Mo. — A male inmate at a Missouri jail was charged Wednesday with raping a female inmate after another inmate freed him from his cell using a key that a guard mistakenly left in a door.
The Jackson County prosecutor’s office said Dontae Jefferson, 29, of Kansas City, also is charged with burglary and sexual abuse in connection with the Aug. 26 attack. Online court records don’t list an attorney Jefferson, whose bond was set at $1 million.
