Jail inmates beat guard during failed escape from Frederick jail
Four Frederick County jail inmates were convicted of attempting to escape from the South Street lockup in August. Three of the four were found guilty of severely beating guard Mark E. Heaney during the incident. Judge Stanley Bennett sentenced three to one year in state prison, drawing sharp criticism from Jail Administrator David M. Doxten, who called the penalties a failure of justice. The oldest inmate is 21, the youngest 17, and all were kept in isolation after the disturbance. Levasseur and Reynolda were later moved to Maryland facilities.
