Protesters Fight For Prisoners to Be Released Because of Coronavirus

Family members of incarcerated people and community groups in Connecticut came to the governor’s house to demand the release of prisoners due to COVID-19 concerns.

Protesters gathered at Governor Ned Lamont’s house at 4 p.m. on Sunday for an in-car protest.

The Katal Center for Health, Equity and Justice said the protest was a follow-up from last Monday when nearly 100 people held an in-car protest demanding the release of people from Connecticut jails.
