Mark Vernarelli, a spokesman for the Maryland Department of Public Safety and Correctional Services, said there was nothing to indicate the guards failed to follow proper procedure.
Uhmmm... Maybe the fact that an inmate managed to overpower two guards and escape with their weapons?
What are the odds that the guards in question were either female, overweight, grossly out of shape, or some combination of the above
It should be a job requirement that a guard is in better condition than the inmate. Perhaps we should also take away the inmate weight rooms
Losing a fight doesn’t mean you failed to follow procedure...only that you failed to complete the task.
Of course, if this were the first time it happened, maybe they could say that with a straight face.
