CENTRAL FALLS — The governing board for the Donald W. Wyatt Detention Facility will meet on Tuesday to discuss meetings that its legal counsel had with the jail’s suspended warden and chief financial officer. Bill Fischer, spokesman for the Central Falls Detention Facility Corporation (the CFDFC), said Margaret M. “Peg” Lynch-Gadaleta and Terence Fracassa, the jail’s legal counsel, met separately with Warden Wayne D. Salisbury and Tammy Novo, Wyatt’s chief financial officer, late last week. Fischer said Salisbury and Novo arrived at the meetings with their own lawyers. The meeting in the Central Falls City Council chambers is scheduled for 5 p.m. The three board members will meet in executive session before they take any action against Salisbury and Novo, who were suspended with pay almost three weeks ago. They were suspended on Dec. 3, a day after an outside audit was released that was highly critical of the 700-bed for-profit jail that houses federal prisoners awaiting trial or sentencing for federal crimes. The author of the audit is Michael V. Fair, a former Massachusetts corrections commissioner, who was paid $44,000 to research and write the report. Two weeks ago, the CFDFC board appointed Fair the jail’s interim chief executive officer for at least the next 90 days. His salary for that time is $18,750 a month. Read More. |
