Shameful Silence Posted on July 3rd
IT IS UNSURPRISING but still infuriating that Prince George’s County correctional officers have refused to cooperate with investigators looking into the death of inmate Ronnie L. White. These officers, who swore to serve the cause of justice, are preventing investigators from uncovering the circumstances of the death of Mr. White, who was strangled, according to a preliminary autopsy report. The officers, who were initially questioned by investigators because they had access to Mr. White’s cell, have the right not to make self-incriminating statements. But their silence will lead many to assume the worst.
