WBNS reported that the facility serves as a residential prison diversion program for adult male offenders. Bowen, Burton, and Norton were all in the facility to complete the program for a parole violation. Long was completing the program for a felony theft charge.
The facility is operated by its own appointed board and the Franklin County court system, and it is accredited by the American Correctional Association.
The incident is under investigation by the Franklin County Sheriff’s Office and the facility’s internal administrative investigation
