September 19, 2015


It is with deep regret that State Fire Marshal Brian S. Geraci announces the death of “Inez”, she was previously one of the three K-9 accelerant detection teams the Office of the State Fire Marshal operates. She passed away in the late evening hours yesterday, Friday, September 18, 2015 after a sudden illness. Inez passed away peacefully with her partner/handler, Senior Deputy State Fire Marshal Howard Ewing and his wife Michelle at her side. Inez should be remembered for all of her hard work and dedication to the field of arson detection and fire prevention. She has been recognized over the years for her outstanding work including her and Deputy Ewing being awarded 2007 Deputy State Fire Marshal of the Year. As a Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (ATF) trained dog she also traveled far and wide on a variety of cases. It is estimated Inez worked over 500 cases in her career.

Senior Deputy State Fire Marshal Ewing and K-9 partner Inez were an exceptional tool used against arson in the State of Maryland. She was trained at the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (ATF) canine training facility in Front Royal, Virginia. Inez was a member of ATF’s Accelerant Detection Canine (ADC) Class #50. Inez successfully completed six weeks of “imprintation” training, as well as five weeks of “handler and dog” training. Canines have proven to be an invaluable tool in assisting arson investigators determining if flammable liquids were used to start a fire. Inez was trained to find ignitable liquids such as gasoline, kerosene, lighter fluid, etc. She graduated in 2005 and retired April 25, 2014.

Senior Deputy State Fire Marshal Ewing is a fifteen year veteran of the Office of the State Fire Marshal. He has been assigned to the Northeast Region, consisting of Carroll, Harford and Cecil counties for 14 of those years and was previously assigned to the Lower Shore Region.

“During times like this, no words can possibly express the sorrow we all feel in the loss of our beloved friend, partner and co-worker. We ask, however, as a fitting tribute that we recall those fond memories she brought to us and reflect on the many accomplishments she achieved during her life time” stated State Fire Marshal Brian S. Geraci
