ATLANTA (CN) - A Georgia prison demands $250,000 to respond to Open Records requests on Hays State Prison, where four inmates have been murdered in the past four months, a dead inmate's mother claims in court. The Southern Center for Human Rights and Rahonda MacClain sued Georgia Department of Corrections Commissioner Brian Owens, in Fulton County Superior Court. The Atlanta-based human rights group, which provides legal services to the poor and imprisoned, claims that it and MacClain made nine official requests for records on the death of her son, Damion MacClain, and two other inmates who were murdered in Hays State Prison, in Trion, since December 2012. Derrick Stubs was killed in Hays on Dec. 19, 2012; MacClain on Dec. 26, 2012; and Nathaniel Reynolds on Jan. 18, 2013, the complaint states. A fourth person, 19-year-old Pippa Hall-Jackson, was stabbed to death by a former Hays prisoner on Feb. 5 this year when he was transferred to the Georgia Diagnostic and Classification Prison and stepped off a bus from Hays State Prison, according to the complaint.
