A 39-year-old man has been given a life sentence. He was found guilty of killing a fellow inmate. The victim, 29 years old, was a former member of a prison gang.
The inmate's death occurred in 2019. The man who committed the crime was already in jail, awaiting trial for a separate murder charge from 2017. His trial for the more recent crime was delayed due to competency issues.
Further details about the case are available, including the events leading up to the trial and the verdict.
