A man was repeatedly sexually assaulted, drugged, and beaten to death over several days in an Alabama prison by another inmate with a history of sexual assaults. The victim’s family has filed a lawsuit accusing the jailers of failing to prevent the attacks and not taking any action to stop them.

Daniel Terry Williams, 22, died on Nov. 9, 2023, the day he was set to be released from the Staton Correctional Facility, a beleaguered, understaffed and overcrowded medium-security prison in Elmore, about 180 miles northeast of Mobile, the lawsuit said.
