Seventh inmate found dead at prison
The Associated Press
LUCASVILLE, Ohio — The inmate toll rose to seven yesterday at a maximum-security prison where eight guards were held hostage and rebellious inmates rigged a loudspeaker to complain about negotiations.
A guard on patrol at the Southern Ohio Correctional Facility found the seventh body in a cell of the K cellblock.
The K cellblock is linked by a corridor to the Lcellblock, where 450 prii
oners have been barricaded since a scuffle among a few prisoners Sunday escalated into a riot.
Investigators did not know if the inmate had been killed or committed suicide, said Tessa Unwin, a representative for the Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction.
Unwin said the death was apparently recent but would give no other details.
prison officials said the six other inmates killed had been severely beaten and slain by fellow convicts.
Negotiators were not encouraged by the progress of talks with the barricaded prisoners — who have been denied food, heat, electricity and water since the riot.
Talks about the inmates' list of 19 demands were at a lull, Unwin said yesterday.
She also said little was known about the welfare of the eight guards being held hostage in the prison about 70 miles south of Columbus.
Officials believe the rebellious inmates have been monitoring broadcasts about the siege with battery-powered radios.
The inmates rigged a loudspeaker and announced from a cellblock window that they were not satisfied with the negotiations.
"I'm telling you that you got problems," a voice over the loudspeaker said. "They can give us what we ask for. It's well within our rights. Then you will have someone back. Why don't they want to do this?"
The voice continued. but was drowned out by police helicopters.

a sign officer on the lawn. Law officers finished stringing razor wire around the culit trained compound Monday and were said to be watching a dam in case of a sabotage attempt by the doppysoup priest's disciple.
Law officers said they had received two "vengeful" letters from Koresh. The second letter, received Saturday, warned that "if we do not listen to Koresh, we will be devoured by fire or destroyed by other means," officials said.
The Washington Post reported yesterday that authorities monitored a dam near Waco on Monday after Koresh threatened to destroy it.
