Two Deaths at Local Prison.
By Jennifer Long
James Winston Crawford and Thomas Goodson were found dead last night in the weight room of the Penitentiary past hours of lockdown. The warden Lewis Yates who has never seen a single death that was not ordered by the state in his 65 years of term had this to say, "Its appalling, just appalling to have something like this happen. In all my years i thought a firm hand wasn't needed where psychology and some proper reeducation would do. America has forgotten that prison is not where you send people off to be miserable. It [prison] isn't a pleasure cruise, but it's rehabilitation. We're out here trying to make these people ready for a new chance at life after a very horrible mistake."
