Fewer NYC inmates reduce Napanoch prison load
Napanoch Eastern Correctional Facility holds about 684 inmates, down from near 1,000 last year, following a plan to cut crowding. Superintendent Jerome Patterson says the contract to house overflow from New York City is under revision, with city figures contacted to curb admissions. The state notes a long decline in overall prison population, while Napanoch explores education and industrial expansion to fit the smaller population, including new drafting courses and shops for brushes, mattresses, and hospital gear.
