Two federal inmates were indicted last Wednesday by a Federal Grand Jury for Capital Murder in the 1999 stabbing death of another inmate at the United States Penitentiary in Beaumont, Texas. In a press release sent last Wednesday, the United States Attorney's Eastern District of Texas said 34-year-old Arzell Gulley and 44-year-old David Lee Jackson, both of Detroit, Michigan, are charged with First Degree Murder and using a dangerous weapon in a federal facility. Prosecutors say Gulley and Jackson attacked a fellow inmate at the Beaumont prison resulting in the inmate`s death. At the time of the attack, Gulley was serving a sentence for a drug trafficking conviction and Jackson was serving time for Felon in Possession of a Firearm. Both prisoners are now housed in the Administrative Maximum United States Penitentiary in Florence, Colorado. If convicted, each faces up to life in prison or the death penalty. It is important to note that an indictment should not be considered as evidence of guilt and that all persons charged with a crime are presumed innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. The case is being investigated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the U.S. Bureau of Prisons. Assistant U.S. Attorney Joe Batte is prosecuting the case. |
