THE COLUMBUS DISPATCHAn inmate in a state prison was hospitalized and needed emergency surgery to remove a hot-sauce bottle he apparently had used as a sex device.
Taxpayers will end up paying the prisoner's medical bills, expected to run into the thousands of dollars.
The Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction won't release the name of the inmate, citing federal regulations regarding the privacy of medical records.
However, a report by the State Highway Patrol, which initially investigated the incident as a rape case, said an inmate at the Noble Correctional Facility in Caldwell was taken to Marietta General Hospital on Sunday evening after saying he had been sexually assaulted in the shower by another prisoner.
The injured inmate later acknowledged that he had not been assaulted, but on his own had inserted the hot-sauce bottle anally, sources said.
"At this point, we don't believe there was a perpetrator involved in the incident," said prisons spokeswoman Julie Walburn.
However, sources said, surgery was required to remove the bottle. The inmate was hospitalized and was treated in the intensive-care unit.
Walburn said the state won't know the total cost until all medical bills are submitted.
State officials frequently point out that the state is required by law to provide medical care for prisoners - even those who harm themselves. The state is self-insured and pays its own bills.

OMG
I plead the 5th about my empty Ban roll-on deodorant bottle in county jail in early-2006
No injuries or reports on my part (just weirdness from my last cellie telling me to toss it in the trash from our 'hut') and not discuss it further (beautiful cellie that he was).

this is a little bit like that Avon Black Suede Body Spray Canister incident that happened a couple of years back in my city.
the story was, this victim sells flowers in the market and after he has sold all his flowers on the eve of dec 31, he walked home and met a stranger.
the stranger offered to have sex with him for only P100.00.
he brought the stranger home and proceeded to have sex with him after which the victim began ranting how he has wasted his P100.00 because the stranger (who was still in the room) had a really small dick.
angered by the rant (and apparently insulted), the stranger rammed an Avon Black Suede body spray for men canister up the victims rectum.
and that started the scandal that included the suspension of surgeons, nurses, clinical instructors, nursing and medical students, etc. known as the Black Suede Scandal…
