Youth Service Officers at Connecticut Juvenile Training School are in dismay over the fact that someone tried to sneak a 380 caliber gun into that facility recently. What really has employees in a dither is how CJTS leadership is trying to make it seem as if threats by Unit 4D resident to a male YSO and the gun are not related. It has been verified how threats were made two days before the gun was attempted to be brought in to CJTS. While KeyStone Cops management try to paint public relation pictures of how alert staff found the gun in sneaker box, staff know the full story.
It is the continuous attempts to not tell the full truth -whenever situations like this arise- that infuriates YSOs on the plantation. Then to make matters worse, since the incident happened Superintendent William Rosenbeck has not been visible to the troops, in other words he did not try to make people feel safe. When something like trying to sneak in weapons occur, people generally feel their safety is threatened and need assurance all is well. Sources report that Rosenbeck et al. did not even make some sort of cameo appearance in order to make employees feel secure; it is rumored that these days management types are busy trying to institute new policies regarding wearing similar uniforms at CJTS. It seems as if during a visit by DCF brass, someone noticed YSOs wearing baggy pants. Now baggy bags received more attention than possibility of someone being shot by threatening resident on Unit 4D. If the gun had successfully been delivered to that resident what do readers think would have been the likely outcome ? I forgot, Jonathan Burgos just happened to have the gun in that sneaker box huh?
Yet on the plantation those spinners of public relations want to placate people with jive nostrums and focusing on baggy pants worn by employees. All employees are asking for is security from being shot plus solace from missing in action leadership.
However life on the CJTS Plantation is anything but predictable.
