his cellmate, michael bixby, is also charged with sex offenses. he has pled not guilty and is awaiting trial for sexual exploitation of children. in addition, bixby served a prior prison sentence in indiana on convictions for sexual misconduct with a minor and child exploitation. i don t know how word got to the unit for it. i woke up at lunch, and everybody had known about it before the news got out or anything, so. as word of glidden s death spreads, the inmate rumor mill begins to crank up. i knew he went to court, he didn t like the news he heard. they said he came back, he hung himself. he hang himself and his roommate sat there and let him hang himself. how did you hear that? a dude in the room with him. said the roommate let him do it. you think, damn, who was his roommate? you know what i m saying you watch yourself. said that he was stabbed with his spoon
