News, Prisoners save their guard's life.
Prisoners in Florida rushed to the defence of their guard when he was choked by a violent inmate.
Deputy Ken Moon, 64, was alone at his desk at the Orient Road Jail, near Tampa, when he was suddenly attacked by an inmate.

Saw that a few days ago. Deputy Moon must have been a helluva CO (correction officer) to earn most of the inmates' respect enough to save his life.

Good story. Would have been more impressive if this happened in Pelican Bay, though.

there are some mean people in jail i pray that the men that did this good deed are considered for early release. i am reminded that 2 BP officers were jailed for discharging their weapons when a coyote tried to kill them, subsequently several BP officers were murdered for failing to fire in the same situation, they were ordered to throw tire spikes in front of the car instead of opening fire.
clearly not standard police procedure. the sky is cryin.
