Edwin Jensen.
According to the Arizona Department of Corrections, a state prison warden has died. Edwin Jensen was the warden of the Yuma prison, which houses more than 4,400 incarcerated people.
The Department of Corrections did not provide a statement regarding Jensen’s death but said the Department and Jensen family were grieving.
