A prison manager involved in a jailhouse wedding which saw a drug trafficker serve his guests Moreton Bay bugs has been quietly moved to a new facility.
Palen Creek prison farm deputy general manager Lex Buchanan was one of seven officers involved in statewide transfers in Queensland.
He will now work at Borallon jail, but Queensland Corrective Services would not confirm the nature of his new role, whether it be a promotion, demotion or side step.
Instead, QCS say the move is 'routine' and refused to comment on Mr Buchanan's involvement
