A prison guard was killed Sunday during a riot that also injured five
other correctional officers and hurt three inmates at a privately run
facility in Mississippi that holds illegal immigrants, authorities said.
The riot began about 2:40 p.m. CDT and involved dozens of inmates
before it was brought under control late Sunday night. Adams County
Coroner James Lee confirmed that a guard died, but said he could not
provide any other details until the correctional officer's family was
notified.
Emilee Beach, a spokeswoman at the Adams County Correctional Center
in southwest Mississippi, said the uprising involved multiple inmates
but she wasn't sure exactly how many because the investigation was still
ongoing.

Wow. One officer is killed and many more are injured and only three inmates are hurt in the process??? That'll show them. Pain compliance works. Works better when there's MORE pain inflicted on the convicts than they inflict on the working men and women.
Kinder Gentler just doesn't work people.
