Report: Prison security concerns unheeded before deadly riot
Gov. John Carney and former U.S. Attorney Charles M. Oberly III hold a news conference to discuss the findings of the Department of Correction Independent Review's final report at the Carvel State Office Building in Wilmington, Del., on Friday, Sept. 1, 2017. Delaware prison administrators dismissed warnings of trouble brewing at the state's maximum-security prison in the days leading up to a deadly inmate uprising and hostage-taking, independent investigators said in a report released Friday. The dismissal of the security warnings at James T. Vaughn Correctional Center in Smyrna was indicative of an overcrowded, understaffed facility plagued by mismanagement, a lack of communication, a culture of negativity, and adversarial relationships among prison staff, administrators and inmates, according to the independent review ordered by Carney.
