Female Calif. Prison Staffer Taken Hostage
Posted on: Saturday, 6 May 2006
SACRAMENTO, Calif. - A state prison was locked down Saturday after an inmate took a female guard hostage, authorities said. Officials at California State Prison, Sacramento were negotiating with the inmate, who took the guard hostage in a prison dining hall around 7 a.m., according to prison spokeswoman Lt. Joyce McClendon. The 41-year-old inmate, whose identity was not immediately released, was armed with a six-inch metal knife made in the prison, state corrections officials said. He took the woman into an office area of the dining room.
From the TELMAS website we learn:
Sue is recently retired from the Department of Corrections and still consults for them. She is a pioneer in the planning, training, and implementing of the addition of women to the dangerous hostage rescue teams within California prisons. Please join us at the Arbour Lodge for this surprising and fascinating story.
