A Selma resident was sentenced from a nearly three-year-old case on Tuesday in the Dallas County Courthouse.

Jeremy Swann was sentenced a 10-year concurrent sentence by Circuit Court Judge Collins A. Pettaway. Swann pled guilty to second-degree assault and first-degree escape.

According to the police report, Swann, Michael Christian and Derrick Washington assaulted a jailer at the Dallas County Jail on Sept. 9, 2016.  Then-Capt. Mike Granthum of Dallas County Sheriff’s Office (DCSO) said the three inmates overpowered a guard by throwing something in his eyes.

Christian and Washington have already been sentenced, according to Dallas County District Attorney Michael Jackson.

“Fortunately, these defendants were tracked down before they reaped more havoc on our community,” Jackson said. “Jeremy still has a pending rape case.”
