A Pitkin County Jail inmate cited in October with was sanctioned last spring for having sex with a female inmate, Sheriff Joe DiSalvo said Wednesday.

Both incidents, along with at least two others in the past 14 months, have led to several changes at the jail, including different color uniforms for women and more frequent inmate check-ups, he said.

“I am embarrassed,” DiSalvo said. “I can’t even give you a good excuse. We did not do a good job.”

The consensual sex between Brolin McConnell, 31, and Jennifer Helms, 36, occurred April 4 in the middle of the afternoon in his cell and lasted for at least two hours, DiSalvo said. Inmates are supposed to be checked on by jail deputies every 30 to 40 minutes, he said.
