Tenure Summary
Myra Monique Orsborn began a Georgia Department of Corrections career as a counselor in 2009, later supervising behavioral health services, before moving into facility leadership. Orsborn served as deputy warden at the Metro Transitional Center (2017) and then held the title of correctional superintendent from 2018 through 2022. In 2023, Orsborn was promoted to Warden 1 at Whitworth Women’s Facility, a post maintained until early 2026 when elevation to Deputy Director of Women’s Services occurred. GPS records attribute one death to Orsborn’s leadership tenures — a single fatality at Whitworth Women’s Facility in January 2025. No lawsuits, adverse intel reports, or news findings are associated with Orsborn’s roles.What happened on their watch
Orsborn’s earliest leadership posting as deputy warden at Metro Transitional Center (2017) and the subsequent multi-year term as a correctional superintendent (2018–2022, facility locations unspecified in available records) appear in GPS data with zero facility-linked deaths.Whitworth Women’s Facility (2023–2026)
As Warden 1, Orsborn oversaw the facility when one death occurred: Rhianna Woods died on January 10, 2025. According to the DeKalb County medical examiner (case 25-0059), the cause was acute drug intoxication from benzodiazepines, and the manner was ruled accidental overdose. The death record held by GPS places the event at Whitworth Women’s Facility, but the medical examiner’s report indicates Woods was physically at the Metro Reentry Facility, where she reportedly ingested a substance on the evening of January 8, 2025, later experiencing seizures and respiratory failure. GPS notes suggest an administrative practice of transferring near-death inmates to Metro Reentry for hospital access, which may account for the discrepancy. No other deaths were recorded during Orsborn’s tenure at the facility.
