Major Problem At Wicomico County Detention Center: HEROIN

UPDATE

FOUR out of THIRTY ONE, (or so) Work Release Prisoners from the Wicomico County Detention Center recently tested POSITIVE for heroin. ONE other prisoner had been taken to PRMC for an overdose, making it a total of FIVE prisoners who were positive for heroin.

Good Lord, even when we POLICE them in JAIL, they can't keep them off drugs. 

Thank God they're no longer ringing the bells for the Salvation Army. 

Yeah, Wicomico County has a problem!

Please remember, the WCSO has NOTHING to do with the Detention Center. The Warden needs to answer to this.

  1. O.K. Warden, what have you got to say about this?

  3. Well by that logic it seems that policing the heroin problem doesn't work in any way either. Maybe it even makes it worse!

    Treatment is the real solution. And keep violent criminals separate from those who are just getting high, giving them an even better chance at recovery.

  4. I wonder how many they missed. The only sure way to detect heroin is hair follicle testing and that can be hit or miss. Urine and blood tests are very unreliable. Seems they need to halt the work release program and rework it.

  5. Here's the deal Folks. When they found out the one prisoner had overdosed on heroin at PRMC, they locked down the rest of the work release prisoners and tested all of them for heroin.

    FOUR others had test results showing positive, even though they had attempted to "flush" their system.

    They are diligently working on finding out how this could have happened.

  7. When inmates are out on work release they do not always have supervision. They are free to leave to go to their jobs and then return when their shift is over. Just like the normal working person, one can stop and do whatever they want in between. This is not the jails fault they did drugs while outside of the facility!

  9. the officers can't be tested. they would lose them all. also, the jail is where the testis are collected & processed. with no outside company doing the drug testing of the inmates or officers, there will never be any true accountability.

  10. I have heard from several people that there are more drugs in jail than there are on the street.

  11. probably the group from the civic center. That building is too big to watch them all. they always are helping set up events etc. one can slip away easily get the drugs and give to the others before they are noticed missing. simple.

  12. 31 inmates can't make the jail money. just because they are house there, doesn't mean they go out to work. the civic center and road crew officers barely even pay attention. it's no surprise to anyone that's ever been there that this has happened. everything is kept in-house. if it weren't for the overdose that prmc had to take care of, the public would be none the wiser. The DOJ should be involved to see how corrupt it is.

  13. The place is just to lax. It needs to be run like a jail and not a social club. Start by changing staff and let the chips fall where they may. Inmates have long run this jail and it's easier for the folks running this so called jail to just turn their heads and look the other way. Maybe a good dose of staff house cleaning would change things before someone dies!

  14. Can't Bob Culver get involved since this comes under the county?

  15. The USA has been made a destination for Drug Mules

    While our Gov't doesn't prosecute the mule who has been deemed illegal to stop and question..

    and fail to prosecute the politically donating banker because the same politicos are invested in funds holding shares in the same banks.

  17. There will be no change at the WCDC. They will make immediate steps now this has broken and after couple months everything will return to normal routines. Bibles, School, Education, the warden will keep his boss informed of his changes and nothing will be blamed on him. He has free auto and should be visiting all places that employee his cons. Get out of the jail and off the telephone.

  18. Addiction is a medical problem not a loss of morality problem. and the doctors who prescribe potent pain killers also play a part in the addiction problem

  19. we all make mistakes. i made one working there. i left for more money. the public doesn't care about what goes on there. not many people believe the stories anyway. i will say that it isn't likely the officers at fault. there are dirty officers there, but not many. joe states that the inmates were supervised. that gives the impression that officers were doing the supervising. that is not likely the case. many "work-release" inmates are "signed for" by other county agencies that do not supervise inmates in a manner that an officer would. these inmates are able to be "trusted" with all sorts of machinery and tasks that allow them to good work for the county. None of us will every know how this happened, but the speculations will fade away as will this story. Corrections is always forgotten until something goes wrong. I will also say that this jail is extremely dirty in a manner that an inmate can't fix. the mattresses are NEVER ever cleaned in anyway. They can't be. It goes from one inmate to the next without ever being cleaned. There's nothing that can be done about it either.

  20. You would get the same test results if it was a group from General population, a chicken plant, Dept. of homeland security or county government. Drugs are not limited to jail birds. You will not stop drug use in prison jail or on the outside.

  21. Maybe someone should talk to Laura Mitchell maybe she knows who the heroin dealers are.

  22. 12:51--
    You've said exactly what I was thinking. Is well known that drugs are delivered there. Most of them are worthless as far as any sort of work ethic.

  25. There's a drug dog available, right?
    Let the inmates (and the officers) check in with HIM.

  26. Fire the warden and all of the retired state correctional adm. That was hired their a joke

  27. Wicomico county needs to sub contract out the jail and police force.

  28. WARDEN K needs put experienced corrections officers in the work release unit instead of new officers without any work experience dealing with crocks. WCDC IS A JOKE! NO LEADERSHIP JUST CONFUSION! CLOSED THE WORK RELEASE UNIT turn it into a REHAB CENTER.

    1. They did have a substance abuse center at this facility Yeats ago. The staff wouldn't do right. Of course the inmates wouldn't do right. And, most of all, the constructual state staff were so corruptible. Therefore, the unit was shut down.

  29. You think they have a problem, check out ECI!

  30. Most of the drugs brought into the jail come in with the officers. I used to work there and this is how the big money is made.
    The inmate calls or writes an outside source to get a money order delivered to the officers home, the officer keeps 80% and uses the other to buy the dope and bring it in. All without no one the wiser.

  32. Fire Kalorumakis, Kimball, Tyler and Moore.

  33. While your at it, fire Morris, Konrad and Strasburg.

  34. While we're at it, civic center is filled with drugs since inmates are unsupervised. Also there is usually an inmate running around the GOB and he did what he wanted. Saw him sitting in a car, no one around.

  36. What a crock 6:44. 99.9 percent of the inmates and their families don't have 2 nickles to rub together. The staff may be bringing in a small percentage of drugs but certainly not "most."
    And another thing, the overwhelming majority if not all of the staff are dedicated and are doing their jobs on the up and up because they are good honest people, who are trying to do good and provide for their families.
    So stop talking smack.

  38. 7:18 you must have never been in the joint because drugs, cigarettes, weapons, whatever you want gets brought into the jail. I was there 3 years ago and Oxy, pot, and a few 9mm bullets were brought in. The whole work release program was on lock down for a whole day when the bullets were found. (The gun got flushed).

  41. 1:35 pm. It is not A "MEDICAL PROBLEM". The problem holds to the individual making poor decisions. Every single person decides to use drugs or NOT to use drugs! Quit blaming everybody else. That is exactly what the problem is today and why it is a Massive problem. Until people take responsibility for their own actions, we will never win the War on Drugs!

    You use...your fault ...END OF STORY!

  42. Warden and a lot of the other Administrators don't care.
    They were the same way In MD Prison system. I know I worked under them.
    The Warden give them everything and he punished Correctional Officers for doing their job, includes property strip searching and searching of cells, because the inmates complained. Some of the others were junkies themselves and brought in the drugs and other contraband.

  43. If the warden and the upper brass stop taking so much vacation every other week they will have more time to run the jail properly.

  44. Joe, no one checks on the work release inmates. A work Release inmate was photographed and featured in a Daily Times article a few weeks ago. The jail did not find out about it until the inmate was bragging about his 15 minutes of fame to other inmates.

  45. THIS IS NOT THE WARDEN'S FAULT.
    HE STICKS HIS NECK OUT FOR THESE GUYS AND DOES NOT LET MANY PEOPLE OUT WHO THE COURT SAYS ARE ALLOWED TO BE OUT. EMPLOYERS FAULT , MAYBE!!! PRISIONERS FAULT YES!!! ALL ON THEM...DON'T PENTALIZE ALL OF THEM FOR A FEW FOOLS. WE NEED THOSE GUYS TO WORK AND PAY THE RENT AND GET OUR JOBS DONE.

  46. The jail has being on "auto pilot" since December when Maj. Elliott retired. Elliott got sick and tired of covering for Warden Kaloroumakis,Dep.wardens Tyler and Kimball while they used their hard earned "comp time" ( everyone else is exempt from earnings comp time about from this former ECI trio)
    to stay away from the jail on vacation.

  47. 9:38pm.
    The buck stop with Mr.K. He has being told to assign experienced officers to run the work release unit. Conduct random and weekly drugs tests but Mr.K is a know -it -all and will not listen to suggestions from officers. If an inmate didn't OK and got sent to hospital this weekend we would have never know that some inmates were getting high on work release.

  49. Tyler was an ECI reject. I worked for her at ECI and she was incompetent and a sexist. How she got that job is a wonder to many of us. She needs to go since she's never there. Kimball should be gone. Mr. K I think is trying to do the right thing, but has no one, Tyler and Kimball to support his efforts. Lot of saving there if you got rid of both of them.

  50. Study the trail to Kimball... Kimball worked at MCIJ in Jessup to ECI to Court Commissioner to the Detention Center...

    He was let go from ECI for knowing about drugs...

    Should be an easy investigation...

  53. 7:34pm, The entire criminal justice system is corrupted in the bury. It's all about the money and politics. Everyone has dipped into the bucket of the gluteus maximus cheese dish. Their all corrupted. Upper management, the correctional officers, inmates and contractual staff who are paid to offer "expert" advice. They all get paid to do absolutely nothing. But, they all have two things in common. They are either drunks, drug abusers or both.
