Former Madison County Sheriff’s Chief Deputy Bronis Coy Phillips has been arrested by the North Carolina State Bureau of Investigation (SBI) on multiple felony and misdemeanor charges arising from alleged criminal activity involving inmates and detention facility staff.
“It is an ongoing case, and there can be no further comment until it goes to court,” said Madison County Deputy Sheriff Van Duncan in a June 16 text message.
Phillips was taken into custody June 14 in Arizona, according to the SBI release. He is being held without bond and undergoing extradition back to NC.
