Deputy Commissioner MCNulty. of the Correc-
tions Department. told tha statements had
been published purporting 10 come from Young
while he was in the Ton:bs,
Any statement that has been published pur-
porting to come from Young Is a prodigious
fake" he said. u myself have seen statements
that Young had been interviewed exclusively
by these sensational papers after he was
brought to the Tombs. but there is not one
word of truth in them. They pure lies, and
were faxed for their own purposes You can
depend upon my statement that Young has not
been interviewed here this afternoon, for l will
stand by it. All the money that is offered by
these sensational papers will not buy their way
to an interview with Young.
