Joseph Oxford-McArthur, who was serving a one- to three-year sentence for domestic battery charges, was found in his cell unresponsive on Monday, according to officials with the Nevada Department of Corrections.
He was transported to Carson Tahoe Hospital, where he died late Friday evening.
Another inmate died Monday, according the prison officials. That man’s identity has not yet been released.
Also, inmate Larry Peck died Oct. 4, and inmate Richard Ferst was found dead the next day.
No foul play was suspected in the three previous October deaths, said prison officials. Oxford-McArthur’s death was still under investigation so details weren’t released as of Saturday afternoon. http://www.reviewjournal.com/news/inmate-dies-nevada-prison-fourth-death-October
While I am sure the families are upset, but I am not crying if an inmate dies in prison. It saves the taxpayer money and removes their DNA from the gene pool.
But it is strange that there have 4 deaths in such a short time in 1 location.
