Greenwich socialite Hadley Palmer released from prison to ‘vetted’ residence, not halfway house

Hadley Palmer pleaded guilty in January 2022 in state Superior Court in Stamford to three counts of voyeurism and one count of risk of injury to a minor as a part of a plea deal with prosecutors. Palmer, 53, was arrested by Greenwich police in October 2021 on an active warrant.

Hadley Palmer, a regular on the Greenwich social circuit who was sentenced to prison on felony charges involving voyeurism, has been placed at a residence in the community that was “vetted and approved” by a parole officer, according to the state Department of Corrections.

Palmer was released from prison, after completing less than half of the full-year prison sentence that was handed down by a judge last year, on what is known as “a re-entry furlough,” said DOC spokesman Andrius Banevicius.

“A reentry furlough is the discretionary release of an inmate to an approved residence in the community for any compelling reason consistent with rehabilitation, prior to a planned discharge or release to discretionary parole supervision during which the inmate must report to a parole officer,” Banevicius explained. 

“The residence she was released to is not a halfway house,” the prison spokesman continued.

Palmer pleaded guilty to three counts of voyeurism and one count of risk of injury to a minor in January of 2022. In November, she was given a one-year sentence. As part of an earlier plea deal, she previously spent 90 days in the York Correctional Institution, the state prison for women in Niantic.
