HAGERSTOWN --A state prison inmate had one year and one day added to his time behind bars after he pleaded guilty Monday in Washington County Circuit Court to a contraband charge.
Christopher Morgan, 36, was an inmate at Maryland Correctional Training Center on July 28, 2009, when, according to the application for statement of charges, correctional officers found a homemade weapon on him during a frisk search.
Assistant Public Defender Charles Bailey told Washington County Circuit Judge W. Kennedy Boone III that the weapon was not found on Morgan, but under his mattress.
The weapon was described as a disposable razor with the blade broken and attached to the other end with a piece of cloth, the application for statement of charges said.
