Ward Weaver ONTARIO -- Convicted child killer Ward Weaver survived a stabbing by an inmate barber at the Snake River Correctional Institution, authorities said.

Weaver, 44, is serving two life sentences at the Eastern Oregon prison. He pleaded guilty in 2004 to killing two Oregon City girls whose bodies were found in 2002 at his home -- one under a concrete slab and the other in a bag in a storage shed.

The barber, Marvin Lee Taylor, 44, was charged with assault, possession of a weapon and supplying contraband.

Taylor stabbed Weaver on March 4 with a homemade shank, or knifelike weapon, "during the course of giving Weaver a haircut at the prison," said Malheur County District Attorney Dan Norris.

There’s something to be said for the justice meted out to child killers by other inmates in prison.

Why did the barber need to use the shiv and not the scissors that he must have had to give a haircut? Were the scissors that blunt? Inquiring minds want to know...

Creep from my state.

Bet he spends the rest of his life being edgy around hair snipping time.

Should of cut off his wanker for what he did to those teen girls.

Taylor was just trying to do what the state should have done, Weaver is a real monster.

Some of those guys may be criminals, but that doesn’t mean they are bad guys. ;-)

I would have given him a medal and instructions on how to do it properly the next time.

I find it interesting that members of our correctional system have a better grasp than liberals in regards to meting out justice.

His only crime here was not finishing the job.

I wonder in Oregon if thats a hate crime? After all convicted child killers have rights too.

As my old friend the USAF JAG said,”Kiddy diddlers and cannibals don’t do well in prison.”
