Southern Ohio Correctional Facility
The Southern Ohio Correctional Facility is a maximum security prison located just outside Lucasville, Ohio, United States. The prison was constructed in 1972. The current warden is Ronald Erdos.
==1993 riot==
On Easter Sunday, April 11, 1993, 450 Lucasville prisoners, including an unlikely alliance of the Aryan Brotherhood and Gangster Disciples, rioted and took over the facility for 11 days. The main causes apparently were serious overcrowding and mismanagement of the facility and discontent in the general population that the authorities were going to force Muslim prisoners to undergo tuberculosis vaccinations in violation of their religious beliefs. Investigations conducted after the riot found that the gangs were also collaborating to murder inmates accused of being informants. Nine inmates and one corrections officer were killed.〔
During negotiations, the inmates did not feel they were being taken seriously, and there was discussion of killing a guard in retaliation. Though the group never reached a decision on the killing, one of the prisoners decided it was time to take action. According to the prosecution, Officer Robert Vallandingham, who had been taken hostage, was handcuffed and strangled with a dumbbell from the prison weight room. However, testimony by Dr. Richard Fardal, Franklin County Deputy Coroner, disputed the claim that Officer Vallandingham was killed by a weight, saying that there was “no injury to the voice box or the trachea” and that “Mr. Vallandingham died solely and exclusively as a result of ligature strangulation.” 〔http://www.re-examininglucasville.org/2012/10/re-examining-lucasville-uprising-essay-1.html - DEAD LINK〕 Testimonies vary as to which prisoner was responsible for his murder.〔Pfeifer, Paul. (The Lucasville Prison Riot ), Supreme Court of Ohio, 2005-05-18. Accessed 2009-06-30.〕 During those eleven days, representatives from the Sunni Muslims, Aryan Brotherhood, and Gangster Disciples met every day in an improvised leadership council.〔Lynd, Staughton, et al. ''Wobblies and Zapatistas'', p.113.〕
Four prisoners, Siddique Abdullah Hasan (Carlos Sanders), Jason Robb, George Skatzes, and Namir Abdul Mateen (James Were), were sentenced to death as a result. Keith LaMar (Bomani Shakur), unaffiliated with any of the above-mentioned groups, was sentenced to death for his alleged leadership of a group who killed inmates during the riot. He denies his leadership and claims the State of Ohio suppressed evidence that could demonstrate his innocence.〔http://kersplebedeb.com/posts/letter-from-bomani-shakur-of-the-lucasville-5/〕 He was not present in L-6 during the majority of the riot, having been taken off the rec yard the first day by the State authorities and housed in the K block.
