Prison Probe
Witnesses to
Be Protected

LANSING, July 17-R -
The employees and inmates Of
the State Prison of Southern
Michigan at Jackson will be pro-
tected against any possible re-
prisals when the report on the
prisons administration is made
public. Attorney General John
r. Dethmers said today.
Dethmers, studying a resume
Of more than 1000 pages of tes-
timony taken during the month
long probe Of charges of NAL
administration, said he expected
to complete his report early next
week, and make public his find
ings. He said he expected to have
some recommendations.
Names of many of the wit
nesses will not be made public
Dethmers said, to protect both
inmates w h o feared reprisal
from other inmates, and prison
employees who were worried
that higher ups" might try 20
force them out of their jobs.
Dethmers revealed that he was
submitting a list of employees
on civil service rolls, who were
witnesses, to Thomas j. Wilson,
State Civil Service Director, ask
ing him TO report any cases Of
attempted dismissal of witness.
Wilson promised that Civil
Service certainly will protect
these employees against any ac-
ton which may result from their
testimony" He said he had not
yet received such list.
Civil Service investigates
carefully any dismissal or demo-
ton of an employe, and if there
is malice involved, we usually
discover it, Wilson said. I'VE
study carefully an employee
service ratings, his past eXper-
fence, and the results OF the
competitive examinations. J."
The escape of Joseph Medley,
later convicted of murder III

ed to die, touched off the prison
probe, but rumors had been cur
rent that ruling Clique ct

granted special favors, that Ii
ouor had been imported into the

high stakes had been permitted
within the prison"
