Chaos at Augusta State Medical Prison (with Prison Video)

More deadly chaos at the Augusta State Medical Prison. On Thursday, May 20, 2021, the Columbia County Coroner’s Office was called out to the prison for an inmate who had hung himself. The inmate was placed in a call with another inmate with mental health issues. And he was able rip up strips of his bedsheet to make a noose and hang himself, authorities tell me. He has been identified as Christopher Jerome Johnson, an 43-year-old inmate serving time out of Cherokee County for armed robbery, aggravated assault and interference with custody. An inmate’s suicide wouldn’t be so shocking if it didn’t come with a lot of other questionable events at the prison under Warden Michael Paschal. In fact, when authorities went to investigate this suicide, they were told cameras weren’t working in certain areas. We’re told the case has been referred to the GBI. And there are reason why local leaders are calling for the warden to be replaced. Oddly enough, he was just installed in January. Michael Paschal was given responsibility for supervising and managing about 190 security staff members and 1,840 medium-security male offenders at the facility. Let’s look at what has happened in his short tenure: Right after he started, inmate Terry Lee Bennett was violently killed by his cellmate. Deontae Holsey, 26, is accused of beating Bennett in the head with a dinner tray on Jan. 9 and causing his death. Bennett was 43. He has been formally charged with murder by Columbia County authorities, since the prison is in Grovetown. The two were longtime cellmates, Holsey serving time for credit card fraud and Bennett racking up time for armed robbery and parole violations. Bennett’s daughter, 20-year-old Kayelin McBride of Arkansas, said he didn’t deserve to die that way. She got to see his body before burial, and said her dad didn’t look like himself. She said she got very little information from prison officials, only bits that have leaked out. McBride claims that guards were supposed to check the cells every 15 minutes. Yet, an argument reportedly started between Bennett and Holsey around 6 p.m. and ended a little after 9 p.m. “when they came in to get my father’s body,” she said. She said the Jan. 12 arrest of ASMP guard Keturah Dunbar shows that drugs were getting into the facility. The guard allegedly came inside the medical prison with marijuana and methamphetamine while arriving for work. In February, another correctional officer was busted at the Augusta State Medical Prison after she schemed to get cell phones to an inmate. Jerianna Davis, 24, of Louisville, Ga., was arrested for violation of oath by public officer as well as inmate possessing cellphone without consent of warden. Davis’ alleged scheme was sneaky: She concealed multiple cell phones in a bathroom at Augusta State University Hospital, where the inmate had a scheduled doctor’s visit on the afternoon of Feb. 10. The plan unraveled quickly, and Superior Court Judge Daniel Craig issued warrants against her on Feb. 11. Other media have reported on the horrible conditions at ASMP, which is run by Georgia Correctional Healthcare. Prison Legal News reported on serious concerns about staff shortages, which were impacting the provision of care to prisoners as expressed by Dr. Timothy Young and other former staff members. Those staffers warned that “lives are at stake,” creating “significant liability risks.” The outcomes are deadly. Last May, convicted killer Daniel Ferguson was being housed at the Augusta State Medical Prison when he allegedly strangled inmate Eddie Gosier, who was serving time for child molestation. Ferguson’s history is frightening. In 2008, he murdered the 94-year-old man who lived across the street from him. Ferguson was just 17 at the time and was sentenced to life in prison. In December 2013, inmate Damion MacClain died from injuries after a fight with Ferguson at Hays Prison, according to the Georgia Bureau of Investigation. MacClain was strangled in his bed late at night after the doors should have been locked, reports said. MacClain was serving time for armed robbery convictions. Ferguson was charged in the slaying. In November, MacClain’s family settled its lawsuit against Georgia’s prison system for $350,000. The victim’s mother had wanted the state held accountable for ignoring the ruthless gang violence and dangerous conditions where cell door locks were left broken or could be defeated with only a napkin, according to media reports. So the failure of prison officials to stop the violence, suicides, drugs and cell phones that are happening have real consequences. We will see what happens with the investigation into the latest death at Augusta State Medical Prison. Stay tuned… LINKS: https://augustacrime.com/medical-pris...
