    Guards Accused of Sperm Smuggling
    By HOPE YEN -- Associated Press Writer -- HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) via NewsEdge Corporation -


    Two former guards at a federal prison accepted thousands of dollars from inmates to smuggle contraband and sperm used to impregnate the inmates' girlfriends, prosecutors say. One of the inmates involved in the alleged scheme was a New York mob associate, Antonino Parlevecchio, according to a criminal complaint filed in federal court.

    The former guards, Troy Kemmerer and Todd Swineford, were arrested last week, charged with bribery and released. Kemmerer, 33, allegedly accepted $5,000 on Oct. 5 from an undercover agent posing as an inmate's girlfriend. The agent asked that sperm be smuggled out of the Allenwood prison in a cryogenic sperm kit. Kemmerer, who quit last week, declined to comment Tuesday. Swineford could not be located for comment.

    Prison spokesman Edward Berry said Swineford quit two months ago. He said prison officials are cooperating with investigators. ``We have a zero tolerance policy for staff misconduct,'' he said. Swineford is accused of being ``very close'' to incarcerated organized crime figures at the prison in White Deer. Among the contraband he allegedly allowed in last year was a package containing a sperm kit. Investigators said sperm-filled vials were taken from the prison and delivered ``on several occasions'' to the Park Avenue Fertility Laboratory in New York City.

    The New York Post, citing anonymous law-enforcement sources, reported Sunday that as many as five New York mobsters fathered children in federal prison. The paper reported that authorities began investigating two years ago after Kevin Granato, a convicted Colombo family hit man, was seen in the Allenwood visitation room showing off a toddler he called ``my son.'' The incident raised eyebrows because he had been in jail since 1988. U.S. Attorney David Barasch declined to comment on whether New York mobsters were involved.

    If they are that desperate to have children how about not doing anything stupid which sends them to prison to begin with.
