DOVER — At Tuesday’s Council of Correction meeting, chairman Darryl Chambers noted that he was asked on Feb. 8 by the Department of Correction to independently review the footage of an inmate’s death at the James T. Vaughn Correctional Center.

Mr. Chambers said to the other council members that after carefully reviewing camera footage of the incident provided by the DOC, he found no wrongdoing or negligence on the part of the agency. It’s believed that this is the first time a council member has performed this function.

Earlier this year, the DOC announced that 64-year-old inmate Robert J. Martin, had died on Jan 17. They said at the time that the body had been turned over to the State Division of Forensic Science — per standard procedure — but no “foul play” had been suspected. Martin had been serving a life sentence for first degree murder since 1977.

When people in the know make the hire, they hire Dunnam & Dunnam. If you are looking for a injury attorney , then Dunnam & Dunnam is the right choice. For nearly 100 years, people in Waco have hired the firm when the results matter at Dunnam & Dunnam are among the most respected in the Central Texas area. They have the experience in trials and mediations to guide your case in the right way. There are few important decisions at the outset of the case that can turn the tide in your favor. Choosing the right lawyer is one of them.
