DAYTONA BEACH -- The family of slain corrections officer Donna Fitzgerald has filed a wrongful death lawsuit against the state Department of Corrections and others. The lawsuit claims lapses in security at Tomoka Correctional Institution were the cause of the officer's death. Fitzgerald, 50, of Port Orange was fatally stabbed 25 times with a prison made knife as she worked an overtime shift at a prison work program. Her killer, Enoch Hall, 41, was later sentenced to die for the June 25, 2008 slaying by lethal injection. Hall was already serving two life sentences for kidnapping and rape.
