Ex-Schools Chief Says Female Guards Made Crude Remarks About Naked Inmates
After spending four days in jail, Jeffrey Hubbard, the former superintendent of the Newport-Mesa Unified School District, created a Twitter account this week.
Jeffrey Hubbard, who was recently fired as superintendent of the Newport-Mesa Unified School District, created a Twitter account this week to help clear his name, the Daily Pilot reported.
Hubbard was convicted in January on two felony counts of misappropriation of public funds while working as superintendent of the Beverly Hills Unified School District. He was sentenced to 60 days in jail but was released after serving four days.
In his recent tweets Hubbard claims he was wrongfully convicted and says there were maggots and flies in his cell.
Recent Tweets:
- "I was wrongly convicted in January 2012 of a crime I did not commit. I was sentenced in Feb 2012 to 60 days in jail & fined. I am innocent."
- "I was forced to undress in front of female guards who commented on many naked male inmates bodies- some cruel comments toward large men."
- "I was placed in "isolation" as a high profile case. That is a euphemism for solitary confinement - no visitors, speaking, phone calls."
- "Before you judge - GET THE FACTS ABOUT MY LEGAL CASE! Supts. can't write checks or force payments - they can only INITIATE a process."
- "I arrived on Thursday with food in my cell - I was "thrown" food 3 times a day - leftovers went rancid - maggots and flies in my cell."

Flash message to Jeffrey Hubbard. Sorry bub, your tale of woe doesn't wash with this reader. You were charged and convicted of a crime by a jury of your peers. Then the Judge cut you a lot of slack and where you could have gone to the joint, you got to spend a few days in county jail instead. You would have enjoyed the joint, where you would have been introduced to a new kind of romance. This time, you would have been the girlfriend. Bottom line is, shut your mouth, go collect your six figure retirement check and be thankful the Justice System showed mercy on you.
