NEWTOWN — An inmate beat and sexually assaulted a social worker Wednesday during a counseling session at the maximum security Garner Correctional Institution, authorities said.
The attack capped off three days of violence inside the prison, which houses roughly 600 inmates, the majority of whom have significant mental health problems.
The social workers' injuries are not life threatening, state prison officials said. The inmate, Mario Stanford, who is already serving 15 years on a kidnapping conviction, has been charged with third-degree sexual assault, unlawful restraint and disorderly conduct.
