Norfolk County Sheriff Michael G. Bellotti recently met with the four clergymen who conduct religious services at the Norfolk County Correctional Center to discuss their roles in interacting with inmates. “Whether it’s conducting a religious service or meeting one-on-one with inmates, you help us immensely through your work,” Sheriff Bellotti said during a meeting of the four clergymen – a Catholic priest, Jewish rabbi, Muslim imam and Protestant minister. The clergymen serving the various religious constituencies at the Dedham jail are Father Thomas Bouton, Rabbi Sol Goodman, Imam Ma’alam Abdullah and Rev. James Keuralainen. Each of the four religious men meets regularly each week with groups of inmates at the Norfolk County Correctional Center. Sheriff Bellotti noted that religious involvement can have a positive effect on inmates while they are incarcerated and after their release. “While the inmates are still incarcerated at the jail,” he said, “these clergymen help us understand any festering problems that may be developing. This allows us to be proactive in dealing with the inmates.” |
