The savagery that followed the decision to retake the prison was both predictable and avoidable. The prisoners had no guns themselves, yet the troopers — untrained, unsupervised and out for vengeance — began shooting wildly upon entering. Among the first to die were corrections officers held as hostages, as well as the prisoners who had been guarding them. Thirty-nine people — 29 prisoners and 10 hostages — would be killed.plain2023-03-20T21:45:09+00:00September 13, 1971Gina Leonf0ac362b4453e23ee8a94b1a49fbeeafde2a0a49
