---

James Kevin Perry has held GDC roles ranging from Correction Administration (2015) through successive Deputy Warden postings (2016–2020) to Warden-tier positions (Warden 2, 2021–2022; Warden 3, 2023–present). GPS records attach no deaths to any facility during his leadership tenures, and no intel reports or news mentions are on file. No facility assignments are recorded in the structured data for any of his postings, so facility-specific accountability mapping is not possible from available records.
