Sources report that last Thursday a resident of Unit 4D at Connecticut Juvenile Training School threatened a black male Youth Service Officer. The resident clearly stated his intent to shoot this particular 10 year employee and others that got in his way. Before that threat was made however, people report that other things were said by this resident of Unit 4D but nothing was followed up on by management. Then two days after the threat on Thursday, the youth almost got his hands on a gun by way of a family member. Jonathan Burgos brought a loaded 380 caliber gun into the facility but did not manage to give it to the resident. He was caught trying to sneak this weapon inside a sneaker box.
People in charge of CJTS do not want the public to know about these details of ongoing threats by residents that have now resulted in trying to sneak in weapons. For years tone deaf administrators have been putting out the narrative about that facility being some sort of Boys Town, Father Flanagen never had to worry about facing gun fire in his facility. The slip shod methods of searches during visits -of both residents and visitors- is what made Burgos think he could slip in a weapon to CJTS. Several years ago emails were sent to officials within CJTS describing how relaxed some searches of residents were after their visit was over. Those emails were obtained through Freedom of Information and posted on DCF Plantation Blog last year. Now after neglecting ways to improve security this latest incident shows how incompetent management is at CJTS; these people cannot run a dog kennel let alone that facility.
Yes on Thursday of last week a resident of Unit 4D threatened a male YSO by saying "you will be shot one day." Then two days later the resident tried to have this 380 caliber gun sneaked into the facility. And this is what management is trying to hide from the public.
