Episode 49: The most haunted Prison in the U.S.!!

Tue, 12 May 2009 23:45:00 -0700

Waverly Hills Sanitarium is nothing… Eastern State Penitentiary is nothing…. Alcatraz is nothing….. Compared to the Devil’s Butcher shop, the old New Mexico State Penitentiary! The History…. In the early morning of Saturday, February 2, 1980, two prisoners in south-side Dormitory E-2 overpowered a guard who had caught them drinking homemade liquor. Within minutes, four more of the 15 officers in the dormitory were also taken hostage. At this point the riot might have been contained; however, a fleeing officer left a set of keys behind. Soon E-2 cell block was in the inmates' control. Prisoners using the captured keys now seized more guards as hostages before releasing others from their cells. By mid morning events had spiraled out of control within the cellblocks. Murder and violence had erupted. Gangs were fighting gangs and a group of rioters led by some of the most dangerous inmates (who by now had been released from solitary confinement) decided to break into cell block 4 which housed the protective custody unit. This held the informers (snitches) but it also housed inmates who were vulnerable, mentally ill or convicted of sex crimes. Initially the plan was to take revenge on the snitches but the violence soon became indiscriminate. When the group reached cellblock 4 they found that they did not have keys to enter these cells. Unfortunately for the prisoners in protective custody, the rioters found blowtorches that had been brought into the prison as part of an ongoing construction project. They used these to cut through grilles over the next five hours. Locked in their cells, the segregated prisoners called to the State Police pleading for them to save them but to no avail. Waiting officers decided to do nothing despite there being a back door to the cellblock 4 which might have offered a way to free them. The burn marks on the floor outside cellblock 4 is where a prisoner was set on fire. When the rioters finally got in, victims were pulled from their cells to be tortured, dismembered, decapitated, or burned alive. During an edition of BBC's Timewatch program, a former State Police marksman described the carnage in cell block 4: I was sighting on the guard tower opposite the custody unit. They lay this guy out on one of the cell doors. One of the prisoners then took a blowtorch and began cutting this guy apart. He was screaming all the time until they put the torch through his head. Fires that had been deliberately started were now raging unchecked throughout several parts of the prison. Talks to end the riot stalled throughout the first 24 hours. This was because neither the inmates nor the state had a single spokesperson. Eventually inmates made 11 general demands concerned with basic prison conditions like overcrowding, inmate discipline, educational services and improving food. The prisoners also demanded to talk to independent federal officials and members of the news. The guards that were held as hostages were released after inmates met reporters. Some of the guards had been protected by inmates but others had been brutally beaten and raped. Seven guards suffered severe injuries. One was tied to a chair. Another lay naked on a stretcher, blood pouring from a head wound. Again negotiations broke off again in the early hours of Sunday morning. State officials insisting no concessions had been made. By now, eighty prisoners, wanting no further part in the disturbances, fled to the baseball field seeking refuge at the fence where the National Guard had assembled. On Sunday morning, more inmates began to trickle out of the prison seeking refuge. Black inmates led the exodus from the smoldering cellblocks. These groups, large enough to defend themselves from other inmates, huddled together as smoke from the burned-out prison continued to drift across the recreation yard. By mid afternoon, thirty six hours after the riot had begun heavily-armed State Police officers accompanied by National Guard servicemen entered the charred remains of the prison. Official sources state that at least 33 inmates died. Some overdosed on drugs but most were brutally murdered. Some sources cite a higher death toll. Twenty-three of the victims had been housed in the protective custody unit. More than 200 inmates were treated for injuries sustained during the riot. *Article from Wikipedia* Thrash metal band Exodus refers to this riot in their song "The Last Act of Defiance" from their 1989 album Fabulous Disaster. Listen to our interview with Marcella Armijo, a corrections Officer who escorted the Nation Guard when the prison was retaken! She describes, in detail, the horrors of the riot. See crime scene photos from the riot taken by Correctional Officers and National Guardsmen when they stormed the bloody facility! An Ecto Radio EXCULSIVE, these are never been released to the Public!
