Almost six years ago, The County Times had reported, Raley was the same person who was charged with breaking into a medic box at the Leonardtown Volunteer Rescue Squad and taking prescription opioids to use for his own admitted addiction.
Coverage from The County Times and other local media outlets from 2019 showed that Raley had been charged with destruction of property and theft less than $100.
A unanimous decision in 2023 by the Commissioners of St. Mary’s County led to Raley being installed into his former position.
Commissioners acted with the full knowledge that he had been charged with breaking into the medic boxes in 2019 and that Raley admitted he did so in police charging documents at the time to feed a drug habit.
