A woman incarcerated at the Lancaster County Jail is alleged to have passed notes containing racial slurs before attacking a Black woman jailed in the same pod, according to court records. Angela Maughan, a 44-year-old woman jailed on four counts of assault of a police officer, is now facing a second-degree assault charge for her alleged role in the incident. The victim told police that she and Maughan had been acquaintances at the jail until, she said, Maughan began to cause issues with Black inmates by passing notes containing racial slurs. She said Maughan was confronted about the slurs and seemed to take her anger out on the other inmate, who wasn't seriously injured. * I understand and agree that registration on or use of this site constitutes agreement to its user agreement and privacy policy.
