October 15, 2021

Attica, NY – On the heels of an inmate viciously stabbing an officer in the chest during an unprovoked attack, more incidents of violence and contraband are reported out of the maximum-security facility.

The first incident occurred on October 8th, where an officer processing a package intended for an inmate, noticed the seal on a half-dozen gummy packages tampered with and resealed. The officer opened the packages to discover nearly 300 individually wrapped pills throughout the 6 bags of what appeared to be contraband.  FULL PRESS RELEASE
