A former Kentucky State Penitentiary Correctional Officer has been indicted on a rape charge.

Attorney General Daniel Cameron announced Friday that prosecution by his office resulted in the indictment of 38-year old Trista Fox, of Fredonia, on a single count of third-degree rape, a Class D Felony.

Assistant Attorney General Barbara Whaley presented the case before the Lyon County Grand Jury on behalf of the Commonwealth.

Fox was arrested on the charge in September after an investigation by Kentucky State Police into alleged sexual conduct with an inmate at the Eddyville prison.
