An inmate serving life in prison for murder was found unresponsive in his cell Saturday and later was pronounced dead. He is the second inmate to die in two days at Nevada prisons. Winston Kelly, 38, was found at 11 a.m. in his single-person cell at Ely State Prison, the Nevada Department of Corrections said in a news release. Kelly was taken to William Bee Ririe Hospital in Ely and was pronounced dead at 12:12 p.m., officials said. Kelly was serving a life sentence for first-degree murder, robbery, and use of a deadly weapon, the release said. On Friday, a ...
I wish the deceased a better life in the next one.
What are the possibilities?
1. Murder by another inmate
2. Death by natural causes
3. Drug overdose
4. Murder or manslaughter by a mentally twisted prison guard
That last one is unlikely to be admitted, so one of the first three will be the reason determined after investigation.
I'd to hear BChap's take on this given his area of expertise.
Anything here is pure speculation. The investigation, autopsy and tests are what determine the cause of death.
Of course, BChap may hear some gossip on the grapevine that would add to the speculation, if he felt it was safe to repeat it here.
Bob, an air freshener? Some would call you soft on crime.
It's interesting how a single-person cell is a reward in some situations and a punishment in others.
I know everyone is entitled to their own comments BUT out of respect for the families of the people you are talking about, these were still people and they to have families. Yes, what happened was wrong but you do not know the person to judge them and to know if they are or not remorseful about the crime. Did you think that might be why this happened? There are ways to voice your comments and be tactful about it, think about it, put yourself in the families shoes, how would you feel to read the comments about your family member? So stick your air fresher....
Hey ismile123
I bet the family of the murder victim are have a big old party now that he is dead....
By the way the proper way for convicts in state prison burials is done by standard dig 6 foot hole place the body and 40 pounds of lime on top.
Save the taxpayers alot of $$$,$$$,$$$
Well, that's two low lifes taxpayers won't be supporting any more. Why is it even news? Their victims probably got less press and their families and friends are still undoubtedly in pain. So, spare me any concern over them.
karma?
Romans 6:23
The wages of sin is death.
We need a full investigation to get the bottom of this. Also those people in jail, for buying and using drugs. Should be given probation, and made to pay fines, instead of being locked up. The president admits to smoking pot, so have a lot of other people. Stop locking everybody up.
All we can offer is "speculation". So here is mine: These untimely deaths were instances of arranged "hits" by either gangs, or some elite and unscrupulous power(mafia/cartel comes to mind,or political interest). Society has little sympathy for those who commited lethal crimes and who truly deserve either life sentences or a death sentence.
It would seem that these subject inmates were somehow "liabilities" while still alive. That is my take.
Blessings and Peace,

Two convicted murders die in prison?

Trends. Full moon. Astrological configuration. As peacelilly mentioned, their Karma will follow them. Perhaps there is regret over choices made but we cannot let these people out among us. The UNREVEALED facts on Texas and capital punishment: SCOTUS told Texas to release hundreds of violent criminals due to overcrowding. Texas failed to act. SCOTUS demanded release of the next few dozen (violent criminals) who had hearings. So, dozens of career criminals were released into our midst. Said criminals continued their avocations and tortured and murdered, mostly innocent young women. As those cases hit the courts, death penalties were awarded, long overdue. Why do we keep releasing animals? (Texas will hire Metro veterans, no questions asked.)
Well it looks like they're in front of the big judge now. I'm sure they'll be dealt with accordingly.
