The Bureau of Corrections late Friday released additional details about a suicide incident<\/a><\/span> that occurred at the Golden Grove Correction Facility last Monday, seemingly in an attempt to clear up what took place following a Consortium story with details provided by a source familiar with the incident.<\/p>\n

As confirmed by our source, the man, 56, was a federal detainee who had only recently been remanded to the Golden Grove Correctional Facility. B.O.C. revealed that he had been charged with extortion, bribery, and threats to an individual, and had arrived at the facility on May 6.\u00a0The source also said that the victim was on suicide watch, but had been removed.<\/p>\n

But B.O.C. said the detainee was found in the cell after a court appearance. Our B.O.C. source, whose information to The Consortium has been accurate in the past,<\/a><\/span> did not say that the victim had been in court.<\/p>\n

B.O.C. again reiterated that the detainee was found unresponsive, and was rushed to the Juan F. Luis Hospital, where he was pronounced dead.<\/p>\n

In B.O.C.’s Monday release,\u00a0Assistant Director Everette Hansen deemed the incident as unfortunate, but said that B.O.C. remains steadfast in its goal to provide a safe environment for inmates.\u00a0\u201cIt is always unfortunate to report a loss of life; however, we remain steadfast to our mission to provide custody, security, and control,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
