Murder in RDP prison
A man was attacked and killed by a fellow inmate in Rivière-des-Prairies prison this week. No homicide number is given here, but I should imagine this counts as homicide #10.

Why do you describe one as “man” and another as an “inmate”?

Surely because “an inmate was killed by another inmate” is repetitive. But, one needs to specify that inmates were involved, because there are other combinations of men that could be involved. Since there aren’t coed prisons, it would have to be a man, well.unless it was a female guard or visitor.

What he said, Bert. Just stylistic variation.

The killer being « a fellow inmate » and not « an inmate » means Kate *was* calling the killed an inmate.

who cares It’s just a god damn label that we give people that are in prison. A human died in a provincial prison. Rare in Quebec provincial prisons
