A Fight to the Death

A prison fight that broke out in South Carolina this previous Sunday, resulted in the death of seven inmates. "This was all about territory, this was about contraband," the South Carolina Department of Corrections said. Contraband relates to items that have been illegally smuggled into the prison, or bought there within. The results of all of the deaths were from stab wounds, although all guards and officers are safe. These kind of situations are extremely hard to prevent, considering most of it (weapon creation, ect.) is done in private. It is hard to resolve these kinds of fights or riots once they have begun due to the kind of weapons being used.
