I was a Sergeant at Lewis Complex, Barchey Unit. I put in my two week notice in October 2013 for "Disagreement with Deputy Warden Currier over staff safety". Warden Boch and Deputy Warden Moody didn't want to here my complaints about my Deputy Warden. So I turned in my badge, ID card and walk out after 17 years. The staff shortages are real. Keeping the inmates happy is the first priority. Staff safety is a distant second.
They decided to stage her death instead because she overturned a murder coverup, embarrassed the governor and forced the head of the department to resign.
