Baltimore attorney arrested on drug charges at Hagerstown prison


HAGERSTOWN, Md. —State authorities arrested a Baltimore attorney Friday on charges of smuggling drugs into a Hagerstown prison.

Steven Thurman Mitchell is accused of sneaking the narcotic suboxone to a client Friday afternoon during a visit to the Roxbury Correctional Institution in Hagerstown, according to the Department of Public Safety and Correctional Services.

DPSCS officials said correctional officers noticed Mitchell trying to leave the facility at about 2 p.m. without two binders with which he entered. A front lobby correctional officer signaled for a fellow officer to grab the folders from the client Mitchell visited, inmate Mandel Brown.

A search of the binders recovered 125 strips of the narcotic suboxone, DPSCS officails said.

This will not go well for him, or the already-convict.

He's going to need a lawyer better than he ever was. Two or three if there are conspiracy charges coming, too.

Those go for $20-30 a piece on the streets, so in prison at least double that......or 50 packs of ramen lol.

Wouldn't be surprised if it comes out the lawyer or his family was threatened or even blackmailed into doing it.
