Inmate dead following fight with cellmate at Utah State Prison

A fight between two inmates Sunday resulted in one person dead and another facing additional charges.

A disagreement and some teasing between two cellmates was reportedly taken as a slight and escalated into fisticuffs inside their cell... After the victim was punched several times in the head, he was then strangled with a "ligature made from a laundry bag,".

Both inmates were housed in a section of the prison typically reserved for sex offenders.

Mawien was convicted in 2004 of two amended charges of attempted aggravated sex assault, a first-degree felony; and forcible sex abuse, a second-degree felony. He was sentenced to seven years to life in prison.

Helms pleaded guilty in 1998 to child sex abuse and dealing in harmful materials to a minor... The following year, however, he was charged with 13 additional crimes relating to child sex abuse.

A prison murder? What is the significance of this? It’s such an everyday occurence.

Of course, it means one less scumbag eating on the public dime.

It sounds like maybe Helms picked on someone who could fight back.

Makes sense, pedophiles killing pedophiles should bring a smile to anyone’s face. One is dead and the other is in prison for life.

Blame Don Draper.

“Tastes great” “Less filling” has led to countless acts of similar mayhem.
