Mid-Orange Correctional Facility is a prison in the final stages of being emptied and closed (August 2011). It is located in Orange County, New York. It is an all-male facility, and a medium security prison. The facility is located in the town of Warwick, and is northeast of the village of Warwick on Kings Highway. This facility was involved in a controversial case in which a correctional officer, Christopher Nuttall, started taking in cats left astray in the area. In collaboration with inmates, he cared for the cats and fed them. He was suspended and later fired on charges of "contraband and collaboration with inmates". Two months later, he was hired again, with the assistance of Council 82 (statewide correction officers union). The prison was also the site of a strike by state prison employees in 1979. National Guardsmen were sent to the prison as strikebreakers, and were quartered in employee housing. This resulted in the only known caselaw for the Third Amendment, the US 2nd Circuit Court of Appeals case Engblom v. Carey. The facility was targeted for closure in 2011 as part of Governor Andrew Cuomo's prison closing program. ==Notable prisoners== *Gerald Garson, former New York Supreme Court Justice, convicted of accepting bribes == External links == * (Mid-Orange CF information ) * ( NY prison information ) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mid-Orange Correctional Facility」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
