Are More Department of Correction Arrests Coming?

With yesterday's announcement of multiple federal arrests involving ECI, don't think for a second that it's over. 

We're told people are ratting like there's no tomorrow and ECI may not be the only institution targeted.

I'll leave the rest up for your imagination but thank God we have Governor Hogan and his entire Staff willing to dig deep since day one, determined to investigate what other politicians had ignored for many years. 

The system needs a massive makeover and all I can say is, it's about time.

Before critics start attempting to say I should have stated which institutions are they going after, yes, we do know who they are. However, this is an ongoing investigation and we are simply being kind not to say where. Put your seat belts on Folks.

Was turned down for a job( age 40 and gender) there guess never doing drugs or being arrested is not the kind of quality they are looking for..get young & stupid to watch criminals..the twenty somethings are too inexperienced to deal with these kinds of people..they are easily led or intimidated...

The problem extends far beyond the indicted. The investigations will go higher and broader and more players will be found.

11:37 Why does everyone condemn all Correctional Officers when there are always bad apples in every job. Ones like you know nothing about the job, environment or hiring practices. A lot of these decisions are strictly political. If you have an ex-con or drug addict or gang member working for the same company does that mean you are one of them?

Those C.O.'s who haven't been arrested thus far are probably losing some sleep just waiting for the knock knock at their door after the FBI pulls up at their house.

I personally know 10 more correctional officers who will be charged,but if they are smart they'll take heed from what happened to the others and clean up their act while they still have time.

336, if they're going to be charged that means they've committed the crime. Too late to clean up their act. And if you really know 10 you must work there.

This is a direct result of the unfair racist and sexist hiring practices of the state of MD.

^^ Example of point. And everyone one wants to continue to use the 'one bad apple' excuse. With these many CO's being indicted, others had to know what was going on. If they didn't, they are incompetent or complicit. Next excuses will be, "if you haven't done the job you have no idea", "walk a mile in my shoes", etc. etc. etc. ad nauseum.

Just do your jobs and let someone else tell you, you are a hero. It doesn't work when you do it yourself.

Yeah, I know. Some will come back and say I couldn't walk a tier, I'd be peeing my pants, blah blah blah. They want a trophy just for participating.

While 18 does seem like a lot, plus more to come, there are over 300 COs at ECI. There are a lot of good COs that are feeling the consequences for the ones that did bad. It's not fair to judge all by the actions of a few. Most of the people did know the one's that were dirty. It wasn't really a secret. But some of the names were a complete shock.
