Staffing at ECI vs Governor Wes Moron’s incompetence

Governor Wes Moron is  culpable for injuries to staff and inmates.
The Public needs to know.
Inmates  will be running through Princess Anne.
* One officer on the floor for 384 inmates. That’s what staff at Eastern Correctional Institution in Maryland say some housing units are down to — and I wish I could say it sounds far-fetched, but half the spots in this country are one call-out away from the same math.
 * Those units weren’t built to run like that. They use to put four officers on the floor — one for each 96-man wing — plus two more in control.
* Now it’s one set of eyes and one radio for 384 men.
* On some nights there’s not even an armed patrol working the perimeter, and  that encourages  inmate escapes.
 * The numbers tell you what happens next. ECI logged 340 serious incidents and 260 uses of force in 2025.
* 9 Ten years earlier it was 251 incidents and 86 uses of force. The population stayed around 2,800.
*  The staff didn’t — the place has lost about half the positions it had when it opened in 1987.
 * The state will tell you hiring is up and the statewide vacancy rate is down. Maybe so. But a statewide average doesn’t stand on that floor at count time. One officer does.
* One officer for 384 people isn’t a staffing plan. It’s hoping nothing happens for twelve hours —
Respectfully,
Retired Correctional staff @ ECI

  1. Those inmates are not escaping over those fences.. I work very close by and they upgraded the fences. Tons more razor wire, new fencing etc.

  2. Tax Moore will only want blacks hired and most of them are in kahoots with the inmates or related to them, so they can help with the contraband that comes in;
