The management at Connecticut Juvenile Training School is highly dysfunctional when it comes to implementation of disciplining employees. In the last year CJTS [ Key Stone Cops type] management terminated several Youth Service Officers for looking at a computer and not noticing two residents fighting. Now it has come to the attention of this blog site that on March 28,2014 a similar incident occurred i.e. two residents fighting while a new staff looked at a computer ( was it work related ? ). Sources inside CJTS report a staff was transfixed at a computer screen while two residents fought in a bathroom on a Unit in building # 6. This fight was known because another resident told the staff about it. Staff then called for assistance to help breakup the fisticuffs. To make matters worse the new staff wrote this fracas up in a report and placed it in CJTS data base called Conduit. At this juncture the entire fight has been swept under the rug so to speak.
"What is good for the goose is good for the gander" so goes the saying: management did not place this staff
on paid administrative leave like three YSOs last year ( for the same type of situation ). I wonder if the YSO in bldg # 6 will be investigated or terminated like those YSOs last year from Unit 4D? How can leadership at CJTS fail to act decisively in this case of a fight in bldg # 6 when they did so last year when a fight took place in 4D? Well, one reason management moved quickly in the 4D incident is because that issue was used as a pretext to attack activist Cornell Lewis for exposing racism / bias at CJTS. Now it appears this new case is being ignored. Situations like the one in bldg # 6 are commonplace at this facility and continues to speak volumes about a management staff that could not manage a dog kennel effectively.
