Larry Hogan, center, speaks alongside Maryland Secretary of Public Safety and Correctional Services Stephen Moyer at Baltimore City Detention Center, in Baltimore, to announce his plan to immediately shut down the jail. The jail grabbed headlines in 2013 after a sweeping federal indictment exposed a sophisticated drug- and cellphone-smuggling ring involving dozens of gang members and correctional officers. When Moyer took over Maryland's ailing prison system, coming aboard in January 2015 when Hogan took office, he had one goal: combat corruption. Moyer has overhauled the process for hiring new officers to make better hires, however, guards say the time required for bringing on staff is creating long vacancies and a dangerous work environment.
