Pascagoula Circuit Judge Dale Harkey on Tuesday set an April 17 trial date for a veteran Jackson County deputy accused of having sex with an inmate while on duty at the county jail.

Bradley Scott Davis, 36, of Moss Point pleaded not guilty to a charge of unlawful sexual activity.

He is accused of having oral sex with an inmate while he was on duty at the Jackson County jail over a two-week period in June. Davis is out of jail on a $10,000 bond.

Davis was one of two former Jackson County corrections officers accused of having sex with an inmate.

A Jackson County grand jury indicted Johnathan Jenkins, 33, of Indianola on a charge of unlawful sexual activity. He is accused of having an inappropriate sexual relationship with a female inmate for two days in September.

Jenkins also has pleaded not guilty. He is out of jail on a $10,000 bond.
