Vermont's out-of-state inmate population will have a new home next month.
The approximately 228 inmates will be moving to a new facility in October after a three-year contract between Vermont's and Pennsylvania's departments of corrections dissolved early. Vermont was paying $7,095,600 per year, or about $72 per inmate each day.
Vermont's inmates were mainly housed at SCI Camp Hill, which has traditionally been an intake facility in Pennsylvania, not a long-term housing facility, corrections officials have said.
