Tamika Latrice Harvey's GDC career began in investigations: salary records list her as a Criminal Investigator (AL) in 2015 and as a Criminal Investigator 3 every year from 2016 through 2019.

What happened on their watch

Clayton Transitional Center — Deputy Warden (2021). One death is attributed to this posting. Jason Lee Mitchell died April 4, 2021, at Clayton Transitional Center; GPS's registry lists the cause as Natural/Medical and his age as 43.

Clayton Transitional Center — Superintendent (April 2022 through December 2024). Three deaths are attributed to this tenure, spanning her first months in the role through the fall of 2024:

• Bobby Dwayne Martin died May 3, 2022, at Clayton Transitional Center; GPS's registry lists the cause as Unknown/Pending and his age as 53.
• Charles Leonard Blade died September 27, 2022, at Clayton Transitional Center; GPS's registry lists the cause as Unknown/Pending and his age as 59.
• Devin Lee Brawner died September 1, 2024, at Clayton Transitional Center; GPS's registry lists the cause as Unknown/Pending and his age as 25.

Two of the three deaths under her superintendent tenure fell within roughly five months of her April 2022 start, and the three decedents ranged in age from 25 to 59. For all three, the cause is recorded as Unknown/Pending, meaning GPS does not yet know the cause of death. The single death during her deputy warden year at the same facility is recorded with a medical cause; no cause of death is recorded for the other three.

A Correctional Superintendent posting at Clayton Transitional Center is also listed for 2025, continuing her leadership at the facility. The counts above — four deaths, all at Clayton Transitional Center — are the registry's totals for her leadership tenures.
