In a disturbing case from New York, two corrections officers face murder charges following the death of 22-year-old inmate Messiah Nantwi, who was reportedly beaten by guards at the Mid-State Correctional Facility. An 11-count grand jury indictment has been unsealed, charging Jonah Levi and Caleb Blair with second-degree murder and three others with first-degree manslaughter. The charges reflect a concerning trend, as this marks the second time in months that officers are being prosecuted for an inmate's death, following the fatal beating of Robert Brooks in December.
Two corrections officers, Jonah Levi and Caleb Blair, were charged with second-degree murder over the brutal beating death of an inmate, Messiah Nantwi.
