Transcript: Two years ago, I shared a report from Baltimore that a 34-year-old Deaf man named Javarick Gantt, who was incarcerated in a Baltimore jail, was murdered by his cellmate. AP News said Gantt’s cellmate at the time, Gordon Staron (hearing), was charged with first-degree murder and pleaded guilty on Tuesday. AP said jail officials have refused to answer questions about why Staron, who was already a murder suspect in an unrelated case at the time, was placed in the same cell as Gantt, who was Deaf and used sign language and was facing relatively minor charges. In the report from two years ago, Gantt’s mother said that his son was strangled to death. Court documents said according to witnesses in jail, Gantt made noises and banged on his cell door during the night before he was found dead. The cell door had been locked for almost 12 hours. Prosecutors did not share what Staron’s motive was. AP News said Staron was at the Baltimore jail with Gantt after he killed a 63-year-old man using an ax at a bus stop. Staron was recently convicted in that case. He will be sentenced on December 19 both for the ax murder and for killing Gantt. Baltimore State’s Attorney Ivan Bates said he would seek life without parole for Staron. Gantt was in jail on old charges from 2019 that included allegations of assault and groping. He was being held without bail after missing court dates and meetings with his probation officers. His case was backlogged in Baltimore’s court system so he languished there until he was murdered. He was only 5 feet tall and weighed around 105 pounds. So, it is very tragic that Gantt was in a very dangerous place while he could have been outside had he met with his probation officer and showed up for his court dates. I do not know the exact circumstances of Gantt’s case, but deaf people in the justice/prison system often do not get all the accommodations they need to understand the conditions of their bail or probation. apnews.com/article/baltimore-crime-homicide-0664806efca0e0f44d71fc45ef95ab6f Previous report: www.dailymoth.com/blog/deaf-man-murdered-in-baltimore-jail-javarick-gantt [Sponsored video by Convo: www.convorelay.com]
Apparently the judicial system in Biltmore, MD was stink due of not providing the accommodation for these deaf prisoners or jailers therefore they (hearing people) violated the ADA! That was shame and sadly, Gant, who was deaf was gone after hearing cellmate murdered for no reason. They ought to be shamed! 😑☹️
Alex said he doesn't know for sure the situation in this case. Does anyone know who is who in the picture? It doesn't matter, I'm just curious. Also, it doesn't seem like a murderer should be in the same cell as someone who is not a murderer.
Baltimore city jail face violation of law and fined estimate $1 Million. Baltimore city jail staff must response future. If Jail/prison reform will vote pass for new law future. Jail and prison captain will strict follow rule.
I’m sorry to hear. Make me think. Who murder him Ganett. Look his cell mate did murder to 63 yrs old because of senior and deaf Ganett is disability. His cell mate May has hate crime to disability senior and deaf. I’m not surprise when it happen die in prison cell block. And deputy or LT or capt report didn’t do good honest. Because it hardly to sue prison system. Sadly.
Alex, thank you for following up on past news items. Very sad!
Deaf victim of family take a lawsuit for this .

@@MarleneHen I agree and both should be separated so one would not murder one other in same cell room. Sigh! Sad oh boy! 🫤
thank you

Is there something like that in the works?
That's sad, three men needs salvation by Jesus Christ
Three men? This video was about two men, not three. By the way, the Bible clearly shows how one must be saved.

Heard horror stories in prison😢. Guards are aholes and don’t care. Eeewww
Don't know for sure that it's a hate crime. The murderer may have just been mad and didn't control his temper....
😢😢😢😢
