An inmate at Central Prison died early last Wednesday of suspicious causes, prison officials said.
James Lewis Upright, 74, died in his bed in the prison infirmary about 5:20 a.m. last Wednesday, prison officials said. The cause of death was unknown last Wednesday.
Upright was convicted of two counts of attempted sexual offense in May 1997 in Iredell County. He was sentenced to 18 years and five months in prison and his projected release date was November 2012, according to the state Department of Correction.
Upright's body was sent to the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner in Chapel Hill for an autopsy. The State Bureau of Investigation was investigating and Central Prison administrators will conduct an internal investigation.
