Hamden Jail Row Prompts Governor Inquiry And Denials
Hamden officials defend jail conditions after W Wallace Redish of Weene Chamber of Commerce reports filthy cells with vermin and poor treatment. Redish, arrested for speeding after a New England Conference, claims $35 bail was offered but he had $34.07. Prosecuting Attorney Saltz counters no vermin and says cells are clean, with better equipment than nearby facilities. Redish waited overnight for court, then paid $15 in fines and promised to remit $10 later, which has not yet arrived.
