Police charge Inmate with Indecent Acts

The RNC has charged a man in connection with indecent acts that occurred at Her Majesty’s Penitentiary in St. John’s.

Back on January 27, the RNC received a report that an inmate was performing sexual acts upon himself while among staff and other inmates.

On February 12, the Child Abuse and Sexual Assault unit charged 33-year-old Stephen Hopkins with three counts of performing an indecent act.

The accused appeared in Provincial Court yesterday afternoon.
