A former deputy warden at the Bergin Correctional Institution has been sentenced for having sex with an inmate.
Because of budget cuts by Gov. Dannel P. Malloy, Bergin will be closing by mid-August. The last inmate is scheduled to leave on Friday, August 5, and the prison will be shuttered soon after.
The staff members, including prison guards, have received layoff notices from the Malloy administration.
