A man convicted of murdering an eight-year-old girl was allegedly killed by his cellmate at the Oklahoma State Penitentiary.
According to The Oklahoman, a corrections officer discovered the body of Anthony Joseph Palma, 59, around 7.30pm on Friday during a regularly scheduled security check.
Reports say medical staff's efforts to revive Palma were unsuccessful and he was pronounced dead at 8.55pm.
Details on how Palma died were not released nor was the name of the inmate, but he was also serving time for first-degree murder, reported the newspaper.

It isn’t that. It’s a whole code of conduct. I learned some of it from novels, some from a freeper who was a prison official, a lot more from someone who was in prison for four years. It’s a stricter code than the one on the outside.
Good comment. It’s unfortunate that it costs the people millions when someone is on death row, with all the appeals that go on for years and years.
I understand the two mindedness.
At the same time crowing over a thug doing the work of the citizens is not something to be proud of.
It is frankly, a sin to not step up and take responsibility.
And if not to change the laws, to carry out the sentence in a clear manner. Ie if we do not have the courage or will to execute we must have the courage or will to sustain the prisoner in prison and make sure he lives out his sentence safely. Not tortured, not killed.
This is what moral beings do.
I agree and that is not correct. ever.
I agree.
Must have been a Catholic murderer who decided the other guy’s murder was worse than the one he committed so he had to take action....
they should all be put into one big cage and let them fight it out..
I like stories with happy endings.
Reminds me of my favorite happy ending, when Jeffrey Dahmer was beaten to death by a fellow inmate.
Christopher Scarver should have received some sort of reward, extra privileges, or something for killing that monster.
Thunderdome!
“Convicts have kids too. Let’s see if Jayme Closs’ kidnapper is released into the general prison population. Damer didn’t last long.”
I think ALL CHILD RAPISTS AND/OR MURDERERS SHOULD AUTOMATICALLY BE PUT IN GENERAL POPULATION. Period!
I think I would find the family of the cellmate and fund their families UGMA/UTMA account if they are minors. Word of taking care of your outside family would see LOTS of these defective products returned to their manufacturer.
What goes around, comes around.
He got justice.
True justice has already been mocked.
That's why a citizen took matters into his own hands.
That’s terrible. I wasn’t aware of that.
The snoring must have keep him awake and drove him into a mental breakdown. Yeah; let’s go with that.
No a citizen did not, an incarcerated slave of the state did.
The fact that justice was not fully served because of the laws and will of the people is the responsibility of citizens.
“Hope the cellmate doesn’t get into any trouble for this.”
You forgot the /s tag.
He’ll probably get LIFE, ..... wait.....
Yes they generally are but sometimes it’s a prison inside a prison style seg or protection unit
Otisville FCI federal joint in New York has one for mob rats etc
A prison in the prison with its own yard etc
Milan in Michigan I don’t think has that
