Maryland plans to fight reinstatement of a prison officer who was fired after nude photos of her appeared in a magazine and on the Internet, a spokesman for the state prison agency said last week. The Department of Public Safety and Correctional Services filed a petition for judicial review in Washington County Circuit Court last Friday. A day earlier, the agency asked an administrative law judge to stay his order that it rehire Marcie Betts, 22, of Hagerstown. The appeal will seek to overturn Administrative Law Judge D. Harrison Pratt's Nov. 12 ruling that Betts' First Amendment right to make and publish photographs of herself outweighed the impact those images might have on the state's ability to safely and efficiently run its prisons. |
