Narrative:
A prisoner was boarded on our flight. I believed the captain had the armed escort form because I saw him receive a form from a station person. The form he received was actually a hazmat form for something else. During the flight, I asked flight attendant about the prisoner. The captain said 'what prisoner?' we then discovered that we had a prisoner without the proper forms on board. This was about 1 hour into the flight. If I had known that the captain had not received the forms in oakland, I would have spoken up. The prisoner escorts said that they had filled out forms at the gate, but then the agent tore them up.
