Chapter 620, Acts of 1961 also provided for the Establishment of an Advisory Board for Defective Delinquents. This Board consists of the professor of psychiatry in the Medical School of the University of Maryland, or someone designated by him; the professor of psy- chiatry at the Johns Hopkins Medical School, or someone designated by him; two sociologists from the University of Maryland and the Johns Hopkins University, one each to be appointed by the respective presidents of these two institutions; the professor of constitutional law at the University of Maryland School of Law, or if there be no such full-time professor, or if he is unable to serve, such other full- time professor of the University of Maryland School of Law as may be designated by the dean of said school; the Director of the Division of Parole and Probation; and two practicing members of the Maryland Bar appointed by the Secretary of Public Safety and Correctional Services to serve a five year term. The Advisory Board confers with the Director and Staff of the Institution and gives general consultative and advisory services on problems and matters relating to professional and legal relationships of patients confined in the Institution (Code 1957, 1971 Repl. Vol., Art. 31B, sec. 4). Institutional Board of Review Chairman: Harold M. Boslow, M.D., Director of Patuxent Institution Giovanni Croce, M.D., Associate Director, Patuxent Institu- tion; Arthur Kandel, Ph.D., Associate Director, Patuxent Institution; Forrest Calhoun, Jr„ Associate Director, Patux- ent Institution; Olive Quinn, Ph.D., Sociologist; Elsbeth Levy Bothe, Member of the Maryland Bar; Edward A. Tomlinson, Professor of Constitutional Law, University of Maryland Law School; Leonard A. Briscoe, Member of the Maryland Bar. The Institutional Board of Review, also created by Chapter 629, Acts of 1961, is charged with reviewing and thoroughly re-examining every patient confined as a Defective Delinquent not less than once in every calendar year. This Board makes recommendations for future status and treatment of each patient and is authorized to grant leaves or paroles to patients when it is determined that society and the patient would benefit from such status. This Board sets the terms and conditions of any such leave or parole, and may revoke same at any time. In addition, this Board makes recommendations to the Court of proper jurisdiction for the termination of the indeterminate sentence of defective delinquents when it believes that the patient is sufficiently improved to warrant his unconditional release from cus- tody and return to the community. Chapter 392, Acts of 1970 modified the procedures for making reexaminations so as to permit procedures and tests not used in the original determination (Code 1957, 1971 Repl. Vol., Art. 31B, sees. 12-13). The Institution has a rated capacity of 600 patients. The popula- tion on July 1, 1971 was 517 (Code 1957, 1971 Repl. Vol., Art. 31B). |
