His bad-boy ways got disgraced Giants wide receiver Plaxico Burress sent to prison for gun possession, and now the jailed Super Bowl hero is trying to do some good.
An anger-management program that Burress got officials to initiate at the upstate Oneida Correctional Facility is being widely received by fellow inmates.
Burress, who has been locked up since November, successfully lobbied the Department of Correction to bring Aggression Replacement Training classes to this prison.
“This is a program which Mr. Burress was interested in taking, but which was not offered when he arrived,” his attorney, Peter Frankel, said.
So Burress wrote letters to department brass until the class was finally offered last month.
