Inmate allegedly attempted to have poison brought into county jail

In an elaborate scheme involving his son and a second inmate, Tyree Tyquan Moy, while an inmate at the Lycoming County Prison in April, attempted to have paper contaminated with bug and wasp spray brought into the jail via the mail, it was alleged in an affidavit filed by county Detective Stephen Sorage. In the document, the investigator noted that bug spray was a poison and considered contraband. In a letter to his son, Moy, 40, whose last known address was of the 1400 block of Memorial Avenue, gave him explicit instructions about how to contaminate papers with the bug spray, and that Moy, once he received the doctored papers, supposedly in a letter, could sell it to other inmates, according to Sorage. The plot collapsed because the letter was intercepted before the son received it, the detective added. Moy has been arraigned before District Judge Aaron Biichle on misdemeanor charges of attempted possession of contraband and conspiracy, and jailed in lieu of $20,000 bail.

At the time of the incident, Moy was awaiting trial on city police charges of kidnapping and robbing a female acquaintance during a carjacking in Newberry on Sept. 17, 2024. In a trial last month, Moy was found not guilty of all the charges in that case.
