An investigation is underway after an inmate’s ex-husband was able to gain access to the Christian County Jail by posing as her lawyer.

James Lindsey, was able to walk through an unguarded door at the jail. He clicked the speaker buzzer and introduced himself as a lawyer representing an inmate.

Lindsey was allowed inside and brought into the room where lawyers speak with incarcerated clients.

When the inmate was brought in, she told the guard the man was not her lawyer and was her ex-husband.

Lindsey was not able to show anything that proved he was an attorney.

Lindsey was removed from the building and determined to be intoxicated. According to our news partners at WAND-TV , the States Attorney’s Office charged Lindsey Thursday with misdemeanor criminal trespassing.
