No surprise whatsoever to read about MT patting herself on the back at her 9/10/25 graduation inside York CI-- as if she invented the concept of inmates participating in programs designed for building healthy habits, employment readiness, and entrepreneurial skills!
TBH, I was somewhat expecting to see a redesign of her weather-proofing "shoe/boot covers" that she could market to her fellow inmates for shower and/or indoor use.
I think the idea for knit slippers came from a story last year from Sweden (Prison Reform) by CT's Warden Jeanette Maldonado-- following the 2021 Protect Act of CT. IMO, the Troconis' are keen to follow all lawsuits against CT Dept of Corrections, and MT, their brain trust.
Correction officers spend unstructured time with the incarcerated in the new model, hoping to stem problems before they start.
