Floating prison ship eyed to ease Maryland jail crowds
Gov. Mandel tours the Gen. William C. Darby, a mothballed troop carrier off Virginia, and says Maryland could ready the ship as a floating jail for 300 to 600 inmates within six months, with refitting in Baltimore and an estimated $1 million in moving costs. The plan aims to relieve overcrowding faster than building new facilities.
