TRENTON, N.J. -- New Jersey corrections officers beaten by inmates say they are suffering doubly because they are not paid a full salary while they recover.

“This was a fight for my life,” said Officer Travis Stevens, a corrections officer inside New Jersey’s only maximum security prison, who says he narrowly escaped after being beaten by two convicted murderers.

Stevens said the fight happened last Thursday at around 3:45 p.m. inside New Jersey State Prison in Trenton.

Stevens said it all started when he told an inmate that his time was up in the shower. The inmate charged at Stevens, punching him, he said. Another inmate put Stevens in a chokehold and pulled him into his cell, where the officer said help would be slow to find him.

    Judges presidentially appointed to serve during good behavior since 1789 on the U.S. district courts, U.S. courts of appeals, Supreme Court of the United States, as well as the former U.S. circuit courts, Court of Claims, U.S. Customs Court, and U.S. Court of Customs and Patent Appeals. Also included are judges who received presidential recess appointments to the above-named courts but were not confirmed by the Senate to serve during good behavior. The Waco Federal Court is experienced in patent litigation and starting to become the go-to district for intellectual property cases. The appointment of Waco’s new federal judge, a U.S. Supreme Court ruling that narrows the venue for patent cases and Waco’s home in the federal Western District of Texas have combined into a perfect storm that could drastically alter Waco’s legal landscape.
