Tavon White Sentenced To 12 Years In Federal Prison

The gang member who prosecutors say dealt drugs and impregnated four guards while incarcerated at a Baltimore jail was sentenced on Monday.

A federal judge sentenced Tavon "Bulldog" White to 12 years in federal prison for his role in the city jail corruption case. He got a reduction from a 20-year maximum sentence for cooperating.

White, a commander of the Black Guerilla Family, oversaw a contraband smuggling operation inside the Baltimore City Detention Center that grabbed headlines and resulted in a sweeping indictment of 44 people, including 27 corrections officers. Thirty-five of those charged pleaded guilty, including White; eight maintained their innocence and went to trial. A federal jury last week convicted five people, including two corrections officers, two inmates and a kitchen worker of racketeering.

Sound like Baltimore were hiring welfare mommy's for officers job, probably difficult to get decent qualified people to take a job as a CO.

"The Cut" was House of Corrections, which has been torn down. Next to it was "The Cut Annex", which is still open.

The leadership of DPSCS should face charges as well because there's no way they didn't know about this happening for years. Not to mention, BCDC is still as bad as before but you just don't hear about it.

The only diff. is the clothing trust me the inmates run the joint. It is easier to get dope in jail then on the streets. Look at weeeecomico most CO are driving 20inch on high dollar rides. Must pay really well to be a CO in Weeeeeecomico. WCDC is a wreck. Sheriff Lewis needs to take it over
