The state Department of Correction is investigating after a fake incident report found at a Cheshire prison targeted a Muslim correction officer and included comments that were homophobic, anti-Islamic and supported white supremacy.
The fake report at the Cheshire Correctional Institution had Officer Shem Brijbilas’ name written in a box titled “Prepared By:” followed by a paragraph full of attacks on Brijbilas’ background and religion alongside homophobic comments and racial slurs.
The document was made to appear that it was written by the Brijbilas, and concluded with comments such as “I informed my masters that I will do anything to keep Us in our place where we belong, in the Ghettos and on welfare, section 8,” and “The white man has done so much for us People that we need to shut up and take what is given without complaints.
