Alabama Inmate Dies on Scheduled Release Day Following Brutal Prison Assault

Family Accuses Correctional Facility of Negligence, Seeks Justice for Son's Death

22-year-old Alabama inmate Daniel Terry Williams died the day he was supposed to be released after being left brain dead from a brutal prison assault at Staton Correctional Facility.
Williams' family alleges he was beaten and sexually assaulted for three days before being found unresponsive in his dorm.
Williams was transported to an area hospital for treatment, where he was taken off life support by his family on November 5.
Williams was moved back to the prison for 'long-term comfort care' where he died on November 9, the day he was supposed to be released.
Williams' family is seeking answers and justice, accusing the facility's correctional officers and warden of negligence in failing to stop the attack.
