Warden curtails outside privileges for lifers at Moundsville
Warden Otto C. Boles of Moundsville Penitentiary will reduce outside work for life-sentence prisoners following a governor ordered investigation prompted by the Otha Reed escape. Major inspector Altare said long-term inmates are more trustworthy but face criticism when shorter-term inmates escape. A new records system will centralize files under the warden and assistant warden. Escapes rose through the 1950s to 1963, with 11 so far this year, and the Camp Fairchance closure in 1963 contributed to more escapes.
