Tenure Summary
Gwendolyn Green is an active Georgia Department of Corrections employee whose salary records show a steady climb from entry-level custody and community-supervision work into facility leadership. She appears in 2015 in staff roles as a probation/parole officer and corrections officer, then as a community supervision officer from 2016 through 2019 while also holding correctional sergeant (2016) and correctional lieutenant (2017–2019) titles. In 2020–2021 she served as a correctional unit manager, and beginning in 2022 she moved into facility leadership as a Deputy Warden, a role she has held at Emanuel Women's Facility from 2022 through 2025, with a further Emanuel entry dated 2026-08-27 on the records. A single-day Deputy Warden entry is also recorded at McRae Women's Facility on 2023-11-22.
GPS attributes one death to her leadership tenure: the July 5, 2024 death of Lisa Michelle Morris, age 51, at Emanuel Women's Facility, where Green was serving as Deputy Warden at the time. No lawsuits naming Green as a defendant appear in the records, and no news coverage or intel report in the dataset names her.
