Brgy. Capaclan, Romblon, Romblon. - Nitong nakaraang ika-13 ng Abril 2009 (Lunes) ay iniabot ni G. Boy de Jesus, Executive Assistant IV ng Tanggapan ng Gobernador, kay Gob. Beltran III ang isang liham na sulat-kamay at ito’y nilagdaan ng mga preso ng Romblon Provincial Jail. Ang liham ay binasa ni Gob. Beltran III at pagkatapos nito ay kaagad niyang pinatawag sina Jail Warden Teodino M. Martinez at G. Boy de Jesus para pag-usapan ang mga kahilingan at daing ng mga preso ng Romblon Provincial Jail.
Ayon sa liham ng mga preso, sila daw ay nangangamba sa napipintong paglipat ng pagmamahala ng nabanggit na piitan sa Bureau of Jail Management and Penology (BJMP). Kung matatandaan ay may pinanukala ang BJMP sa Pamahalaan ng Lalawigan ng Romblon ang paglilipat ng Romblon Provincial Jail sa pangangasiwa ng kanilang tanggapan, at ito’y sinang-ayunan ng Sangguniang Panlalawigan at binigyan nito ng “authority” si Gob.
