As the coronavirus pandemic continues to spread behind bars in Maryland, Gov. Larry Hogan has signed an executive order to expedite the release of hundreds of men and women imprisoned at state correctional institutions.
Hogan’s order, posted Sunday morning, speeds up the release of inmates who were already eligible to be released within the next four months and the processing of inmates eligible for home detention.
The order also directs the Maryland Parole Commission to accelerate consideration of parole for inmates convicted of non-violent crimes who are older than 60, have a good record while incarcerated, and an approved plan for re-entry to society.

Now this I don't understand. They rent hotel rooms for the homeless to get them off of the streets, yet release prisoners to the streets.
lock and load cause break-ins and robberies will increase.
sounds like they are mostly likely already exposed so why let these individuals back into regular society where most people have not been exposed? WTF?
Oh Yes, Md the Inmate State !! Just let them ALL go !!!
Should NOT be allowed by Law !!! No reason for this nonsense !!!!
Accomplishing Nothing !!!!
POS
They have to release criminals from jail to make room for the people they arrest for going to church illegally. What have we come to?
I just don't understand the logic. The prisons are already infested with the coronavirus. The majority of the prison population are probably carriers. Right now they are contained but our governor wants to release them out into society?! And who in their right mind thinks that someone who has been locked up for months or years is going to stay home and not travel all over the place?1
He needs to look outside the box. Where do these released individuals go after release. Are they to be tested before release? How are they going to live and where and with who. How do they survive, with no income and no job opportunities. Figure this out before release.
Release a convicted felon back into the streets with NO employment options but turn back to crime
Are these dirt bags being tested for the virus before their release?
Iv only seen minimal evidence of 1 prison {in another state} having a problem and they quickly got that under control. Its clear hogan isnt doing this for the health and safety of the inmates nor for the citizens. The typical reason demorats do these ridiculous decisions is money...soros slip him so bucks for the chaos? savings on inmate cost?
Purposely spreading the virus? Anyway you cut it its a criminal act.
If states don’t get tax revenue in say good by to food stamps,welfare and most government programs.
He is a trip.
Not sure Hogan has this one right. Perhaps 3:44 PM has good advice.
They will end up in our new homeless tent City. Who is responsible when someone gets killed there. Can they sue the city?! This is crazy!! Does the city umbrella policy cover this craziness?!
These are inmates that were eligible for release. Just cutting the paperwork. They must have a residence and the cannot leave the residence until authorities say.
5:23 PM - Do not be so naive. Just because they are supposed to have a residence does not make it so and the monitoring will be weak. Just stop it!! This will be an unmitigated disaster. It should be one of the pieces that ruins Hogans political career.
Lol, 523. You think that's how it works? If you guys only knew what was happening.
Hogan=Soro's puppet$
All the Worst get released First !!! I know I worked there 20 yrs !!!
Hogan is a moron gonna release more crime and corvo ..almost as brillanas going off and wasting our taxes by buying test kits from his s korea bussiness partners. Cant move out fast enough!
Jake wants them in dabury
They are a signed a socialwoker and an ankle bracelet.I would worry if they were letting murderer out.
Hope his wife doesn't mind more company - that's where they should stay. Dumb idea by a dumb person.
523 is right and you are wrong. Too many people think they know everything, yet they know nothing. The parole release system is well maintained and controlled. There are abberations in every demographic including the parole population. No different than any other society demographic.
Well at least the sex offenders can get back on their computers and start dating kids again.
And they release criminals then threaten to jail quarentine violators.
We should ask if he will house some in the governor's mansion.
813, incorrect. No social worker. No ankle bracelet. Fyi, murderers are typically very compliant. It's the heroin addicts and drug dealers you have to worry about. And guess who's getting out?
I have first-hand information and you are mistaken.
1129, lol. I see the administration is out with a propaganda campaign. Tell Larry we said Hi. Fyi, please stop lying to the people paying your salary.
More room for illegal aliens.
Genius !! If the virus don't kill you they will !!! Great idea !!! Boss Hogg
Good time to be a prisoner in America , Hell crime will now go UP !!!
You do crime ,go to jail , then they RELEASE you !!! Boy such Hard Cruel

You can be as BAD as you want , knowing you will be OK here !!! Not Russia
All Criminals > Come to Maryland !!! Not Florida Not Texas Not Va

They will definitely be out and about.
@6:11 Tell us. So very many elude to knowing some than stop short of saying it. You are posting as Anonymous, so what is it that you say you know but stop short of telling us? Is it so highly classified that we cannot know but you do?
1050. Not at all. I beg all of you to look into it. It's called the Justice Reinvestment Act. Hogan's baby. No accountability to criminals. Enjoy.
You are a fat, fascist asshole and I hope your business fails.
