  1. Women guarding men

    Part of the reason the Baltimore City Detention Center corruption scandal has gotten so much attention is the salaciousness of the allegations. The inmate charged as the kingpin of the corruption ring is accused of impregnating no fewer than four...

  2. O'Malley and Maynard are doing a good job cleaning up corruption at the city jail

    Since 1993, I have had the opportunity to visit hundreds of prisons, jails, juvenile facilities and community corrections facilities as the executive director of the American Correctional Association. Having served more than 19 years in the Arlington County, Va., sheriff's office, I know the many challenges and difficulties that come with the operation of a detention facility and the management of inmates in a large urban center.

  3. Another needless death in America's long, failed war on drugs

    Thirteen years ago, Cpl. Ed Toatley was working undercover for the Maryland State Police when he was murdered during a botched drug deal in Washington, D.C. Ed was a close friend of mine, and his tragic death Oct. 30, 2000, began my quest to end America's longest war, the failed war on drugs. That quest led me to the newly formed Law Enforcement Against Prohibition (LEAP), an international nonprofit organization for law enforcement professionals embarking on journeys similar to mine, where I have served as executive director for the past three years.

  6. After jail scandal, spotlight on growing role of women officers

    The 19-year-old felt sick to her stomach when she stepped into the Baltimore prison once nicknamed "Supermax" for her first day of work as a corrections officer. The place was dark and dingy, and she had never been around so many men before.

  9. DJS' slippery slope at Silver Oak

    The state Board of Public Works' vote Wednesday to allow the privately operated Silver Oak Academy juvenile treatment center in Carroll County to double in capacity is regrettable not only because it violates the state's own policy of limiting such facilities to no more than 48 beds but because it sets a troubling precedent for how the state will handle future shortages of treatment slots for juveniles. If the goal is to help troubled youngsters get their lives back on track, the state would have done far better if it had accelerated long-delayed plans to build two new, smaller facilities in Baltimore City and Prince George's County. Instead, Maryland seems to have reversed course toward the kind of dangerously overcrowded, harder-to-manage youth facilities it has been trying to move away from in recent years.

  10. Corrections department reorganization contributed to jail troubles

    As a former employee of the Department of Public Safety and Correctional Services, I concur with your June 7th editorial "Keep up the scrutiny" with one exception: Secretary Gary Maynard's relocation of his office to BGF Central, otherwise known as the Baltimore City Detention Center, is a stunt to demonstrate some action, any action, long after the horse has left the barn, or more appropriately, four impregnations accomplished.
