Somehow the guards didn't notice that the inmate was beheaded in his cell. The attack took place in March of 2019. According to a new report, the prison guards making their rounds reported that both men were alive shortly after the attack allegedly took place. The family of the victim has filed a lawsuit and investigations are ongoing into how and why this happened.
The report blames the Department of Corrections for conducting a shoddy investigation and delaying disciplinary action against the guards. It is unknown. The family suggests that the cell bars covered by a white sheet and the guards did not check behind the sheet when making their rounds. The family is also questioning why the pair were sharing a cell. Osuna was a convicted killer and "satanist". He also had a history of attacking his cellmates.
A judge has ruled that Osuna is not competent to stand trial for Romero’s death. Can you believe that the guards didn't notice an inmate was beheaded in his cell?
