I don't usually comment on these posts , but I must say this. All the people out there that like to think Correctional Officers are all dirty should try walking in our shoes for a day or so. Do you have the nerve to run to a fight in progress with homemade inmate weapons Involved, all while trying to protect the guys that have caused harm to your society, or responding to a non responsive inmate for an overdose trying to save his life. When you walk the tiers with 96 convicted felons then you can say what you like. I can because I did it for 20yrs. I happen to know that the death was from an inmate on inmate assault and the Warden is a good person with a lot of experience. As far as the drugs there are numerous arrests to visitors. Until you know some of what goes on there STFU.
