Other December 9, 2024 · [FCI McKean](https://federalprisondude.com/resources/federal-prisons/mck-fci-mckean-federal-correctional-institution-pennsylvania)

What the local press ran on this, in one place. I have not written it up beyond the headlines, and the links go to the outlets themselves.

The second death in roughly three months is the relevant pattern here. The person's original conviction may explain why he was in custody; it does not explain why he died there.
