Kilpatrick, Terence Wayne
Not on GDC's 2025 payroll (last listed 2020)
Profile written September 23, 2026
This profile reflects positional accountability — this individual held the leadership roles shown during the dates shown, during which the listed deaths or lawsuits occurred. Inclusion does not constitute a legal finding of personal culpability for any specific incident.
Tenure Summary
GPS records show no deaths attributed to facility-leader tenures held by Terence Wayne Kilpatrick, and no allegations — no facility intel reports, no intel events, and no news mentions — are recorded against his leadership periods. What the records do document is a six-year GDC salary history: a correctional operations post in 2015 ($48,608.05), two years as a deputy warden (2016, $62,884.66; 2017, $69,784.80), and then three years in warden-tier positions — listed as "Warden 2" in 2018 ($76,480.20) and "Warden 3" in 2019 ($88,849.92) and 2020 ($71,305.04).No facility assignment is recorded for any of those postings, so the specific institutions Kilpatrick led cannot be identified from the available data. The deaths-by-facility totals and the decedent list tied to his tenure are both empty. One federal lawsuit, filed during his 2018 warden-tier year, names him as a defendant.
