DEKALB COUNTY, Ga. — Investigators said a man tried to hire a hit man to kill the arresting officer inside of his jail cell.
Mejia was arrested last May when officer D.K. Mishoe found 5 bricks of cocaine inside of a car that he said he borrowed from a friend after a traffic stop, police said.
Prosecutors said Jonathan Mejia asked his cell mate in the DeKalb County Jail to recommend a hit man to kill the police officer who arrested him. The cell mate immediately called the Georgia Bureau of Investigation.
