On Saturday, around 2:30 a.m., Washington County deputies spotted a man dressed in long pants, a long-sleeved shirt and carrying a backpack on prison grounds.
Deputies said they saw the same man walking in a driveway next to the field where he was last seen.
When deputies asked the man where he was, he claimed he did not know and was “walking to figure it out.” When deputies asked him about the backpack, he said, “he found it while walking and decided to take it.”
The man, identified as 20-year-old Jabriuos Seals, of Sandersville, was arrested and charged with four counts of items prohibited by the warden, two counts of possession with intent to distribute and one count of trading with inmates.
“You’d think the message was loud and clear by now—but nope, some folks are still trying their luck with contraband drops at Washington State Prison," Sheriff Joel Cochran said.

“No matter how they try to pull it off—by land, by air, or by whatever DIY method TikTok cooked up—we’re one step ahead. Our team at the Washington County Sheriff’s Office, alongside the Georgia Department of Corrections, isn’t just watching. We’re waiting," Cochran said. “Every drop attempt is a crime, and we treat it like one. To the would-be smugglers: if you’re looking for a one-way trip to prison, congratulations—you’re on the right track."
