Georgia Prisoners' Speak has documented three deaths in three days at Macon State Prison in October, based on reports from inside the facility. GDC publicly confirmed one death, Juld Carter's, and said it is investigating it as a homicide. It has released no public statement on the other two. Eight days later, GDC locked down more than two dozen facilities, citing a gang-related fight at Hays State Prison in which three men were injured and none died.
GPS's death registry records at least 93 deaths at Macon since January 1, 2020, 36 of them coded as homicides. Reports from inside describe non-locking cell doors, non-working cameras, and missed officer rounds. These are oversight failures with fatal consequences, and they warrant legislative attention.
