(KLZA)-- The March 2 deaths of two inmates at the Tecumseh State Correctional Institute have been ruled as homicides.
A Department of Correctional Services Wednesday news release indicates the death of Michael Galindo was “inhalation of combustion products” with contributing causes of “multiple sharp and blunt force injuries.”
The death certificate for Damon Fitzgerald lists “multiple sharp and blunt force injuries to his head and torso" with contributing factors of “thermal injury and external compression of neck structures.”
Galindo and Fitzgerald were found deceased following a disturbance at the prison north of Tecumseh on March 2. The criminal investigation into the deaths is ongoing.
