Mass Class Action Against Maryland Booking Center

A federal judge has approved a massive class action lawsuit against Maryland’s Department of Public Safety and Correctional Services, alleging unlawful detentions at the Central Booking facility that held over 13,000 people beyond their legal release dates between 2019 and 2022.

This ruling sets the stage for a major legal battle focused on accountability and justice for those wrongfully detained. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
