OAKLAND — The investigation into the escape of 29-year-old Deandre Kelly from the Garrett County Detention Center in January has not yet been completed but Sheriff Rob Corley has already taken action in the case.
“Through the investigation, administrative actions were taken against two officers who were relieved of their employment at the detention center and have since been replaced,” said Corley.
The identity of the officers who were relieved of their duties has not been disclosed.
The sheriff also said that he is working with the county commissioners to improve conditions at the detention center to “create a safer working environment.” He said equipment has been upgraded and new personnel have been hired as part of the ongoing process.
The investigation into the Jan. 23 escape is being conducted by the Maryland Department of Public Safety and Correctional Services. The agency was requested to investigate the matter at the request of the sheriff.
“This case is by no means closed,” said Corley on Tuesday after announcing Kelly’s arrest.
