A former DeKalb County jail deputy was sentenced to 12 years in prison for sex with an inmate and other crimes.
Joann Marks, a 28-year-old former DeKalb County jail deputy, was sentenced to 12 years in prison on January 14, 2026, after pleading guilty to sexual contact with an inmate, possession of prohibited items, and violating her oath as a public officer.
The case emerged in April 2024 when a cell phone and cigarettes were found in an inmate’s cell, leading to an investigation that uncovered surveillance footage showing Marks with the inmate and her admission to providing contraband and engaging in a sexual relationship.
She was arrested the same day, fired, and later sentenced to two years in confinement and 500 hours of community service.
Marks is eligible to have her record cleared under the First Offender Act if she completes all terms.
