In October 2017 members of the Wicomico County Sheriff’s Office, assisted by members of the Wicomico County Detention Center, and the Eastern Shore Information Center (ESIC), began an investigation into the distribution of controlled substances into the Wicomico County Detention Center. The investigation revealed that someone was mailing Suboxone, a controlled substance, to multiple inmates in the Detention Center. The investigation was eventually forwarded to the Sheriff’s Office Community Action Team (CAT) for investigation. Members of the Community Action Team were able to identify the potential suspect, Evelyn Dorman, of Crisfield, Maryland. It was learned that Dorman was mailing Suboxone to Ronald Monroe, who is an Inmate at the Wicomico County Detention Center. Monroe and Dorman conspired on numerous calls made by Monroe from the Detention Center to Dorman.

Charges against Monroe are pending at the time of this release.
