A US prison guard has been ordered to scrub toilets for 15 days after he urinated onto inmates playing basketball. Missouri Judge Don Burrell said he hoped the sentence would help Justin Hastings understand what it was like to depend on those with power.

　　Hastings, 23, was also given two years of probation and 150 hours of community service after being convicted of four counts of assault. Four inmates said they were splashed by the urine as they played basketball at the Greene County Jail.

　　Hastings admitted during the trial that he knew prisoners were in the room when he and another guard urinated through a roof grate. A DNA expert testified that urine samples taken from the jail roof could be linked to Hastings.

　　Both guards resigned. Greene County also paid a total of 100,000 to the four inmates.
