3 more Baltimore police officers make ‘Do Not Call' list over credibility concerns
BALTIMORE - Three more Baltimore City police officers currently employed with the department have been added to the state's attorney's "Do Not Call" list, which identifies officers as having misconduct allegations, or character or credibility issues that could cast doubt on their ability to be truthful on the stand.
The Baltimore Sun asked State's Attorney Ivan J. Bates' office why Officers Marien Bwima, Victor Figueroa and Tyler Horton-Jones were added to the Do Not Call list; the office did not respond by publication. The list indicates that the three officers have "sustained Internal Affairs charges that are currently pending formal judgment."
All three remained employed with Baltimore City Police as of Wednesday.
The Sun requested comment on the update and charges against said officers from Baltimore City Fraternal Order of Police union president Mike Mancuso; it did not receive a response by publication.
The update also included nine new names of officers who were employed more than five years ago by the Baltimore City Police: officers Christian Allen, Eddie Arias, Matthew Chrest, Rodney Cintron, Jhonn Corona, Michael Cross, Jerry Diggs, Rafael Feliciano and Donald Gaff.
Prior to this, the list was most recently updated April 1, when Bates' office added seven officer names.
The "Do Not Call" list is posted online yearly by Bates' office.
A list of Baltimore Police officers with credibility issues whom prosecutors should not call to the witness stand began with former State's Attorney Patricia Jessamy, who created an internal list of such officers. The list has gone through several iterations.
Under Bates, officers can land on the list for several reasons, including formal charges related to lack of truthfulness, such as theft or false statements, or pending criminal charges or a criminal conviction that calls an officer's honesty into question, according to the state's attorney's website.
