Counselor. There were inmates that shielded this victim. And tragically we learned that the fourth officer did not make is out alive. Sergeant floyd was found unresponsive. Sergeant steven floyd was with the department for 16 years. Was pronounced dead. 5 06 thursday a Tactical Team gained entry in building c where this erupted. They used a backhoe to get through barricades filled with water. They filled the foot lockers with water and that created very heavy building blocks. The facility is now secured and the investigation into why it happened and which of the 120 inmates all called suspects is just the beginning. We will leave no stone unturned and detectives are going cell by cell collecting evidence. At this time i am not able to give you a motive for the attack. And so back out live, we can tell you when it comes to the weapon taz these inmates use that is not clear, we were told they were sharp instruments. When it comes to Sergeant Floyd he leaves behind a wife and three childr

I can also tell you that its somewhat puzzling that theyre investigating johns home because nothing in johns home or about johns home has changed in the the last 10 years since the last time the fbi raided johns home. Reporter dougherty was never charged after that 2006 raid. Action news spoke with former federal prosecutor george perry about todays raids during which a number of warrants were served. It would be fair to say that theyre not fooling around. They have reason to believe that crimes are being committed and they have reason to believe that the searches that theyre conducting will produce evidence of those crimes.
