Before SCHWAB, C.J., and FOLEY and FORT, JJ.
FORT, Judge.
This case is a companion case to Martin v. O.S.P., 24 Or. App. ___, 547 P.2d 641, decided today. Both were heard and decided the same day before the same Disciplinary Committee members. Petitioner here was the other occupant of Segregation and Isolation Cell 217 at the time a plastic mirror and a steel spoon were allegedly found in the cell.
Unlike Martin, here petitioner flatly denied any knowledge of the presence of the spoon or the mirror in the cell. The sparse record of each hearing is completely barren of evidence showing where within the two-man cell the spoon was found. It may have been in a pocket of Martin's uniform, in his mattress, or, for all the record shows, in Hanlon's uniform pocket, in plain view on a shelf, or secreted in a basin, toilet or light fixture.
So far as the broken piece of plastic mirror is concerned, however, there was *643 direct evidence from Martin that it was in plain view on the shelf in the small cell. The credibility of petitioner was for the Disciplinary Committee, which could reasonably infer, despite his denial, that he was in fact aware of the presence in the cell of the plastic mirror. Petitioner acknowledged he knew that under prison rules he might be held equally responsible with a cell mate for contraband found in their cell.
We conclude that there was evidence to support the finding of guilt of possession of dangerous contraband  the piece of plastic mirror.
Affirmed.
