At about 8:40 this morning we had approximately 400 inmates participating in a riot. Thirty-nine of them we have been able to identify as needing medical treatment.

They were preparing to start moving the inmates over for breakfast. We had them segregated. The Latino inmates were going to exit and go to breakfast. During that movement, the initial reports indicate that the Latinos began to attack white inmates.

Around 50 inmates were involved. Tickets were written for inciting riots and participating in a riot. All the prisoners participating have been transferred to higher security prisons.

One inmate has a slash wound that goes from his ear all the way over to his mouth. It appears he was attacked by a razor blade attached to a toothbrush or a comb.

He smiled. He nodded. He thanked me.

He was quite relieved to find that he was not going to be executed. He smiled, he nodded, he thanked me.
