The Schuylkill County Board of Commissioners voted to fire a Schuylkill County Prison employee Wednesday.
Corrections officer Fernando Oliver, Minersville, was let go effective July 2.
Schuylkill County Commissioner George Halcovage Jr. said the Prison Board met then and made that recommendation. Schuylkill County Commissioner Gary Hess said Wednesday a special meeting was called July 2 where Oliver was let go for “cumulative disciplinary reasons.”
An employee of the human resources office would not disclose the reason. Oliver was hired June 26, 2017. His last rate of pay was $29.28.
