A Florida inmate who mutilated his cellmate, cutting off his ear and wearing it as a necklace, had a long history of mental illness and violence — including making death threats against the president of the United States in 2006, state and federal records show. Until last year, Michael A. Hernandez Jr., 37, was on Florida’s Death Row for the 2004 murder of a 67-year-old woman, who was beaten to death in a home-invasion robbery in Milton, a town in Santa Rosa County. While awaiting trial for that murder, Hernandez — then 23 — threatened to kill the president, George W. Bush, and his family, according to a federal indictment. Details of the threat were sealed. A jury voted 11-1 to sentence Hernandez to death for the bludgeoning death of Ruth Everett, and he was sent to Death Row in 2007, serving time in Florida State Prison and Union Correctional Institution. Florida’s Death Row inmates are housed in maximum-security prisons, one inmate per cell. Read More. |

Shocked to read about the, inmate who sliced off cellmate’s ear, and wore it as necklace, its worse than anything. I personally like Amber teething necklace. He should really be punished for his deeds.
