Limon houses some of the state's most dangerous inmates.
In 2001 42-year-old inmate David Alonzo slipped and fell in his cell, and was dead three days later from an infected arm injury.[3]
In October 2002, inmate Edward Montour Jr. beat correctional officer Eric Autobee to death in the facility's kitchen.[4]
On March 28, 2004, inmate Jeffrey Heird was stabbed to death multiple times by other inmates, two of whom were charged with the death penalty for the attack.[5]
On September 12, 2007, an inmate cut the throat of corrections officer Pam Kahanic with a box cutter knife. Kahanic survived the attack and was back at work within six weeks.[6]
Inmate Joshua Edwards died of undisclosed causes in early June 2015;[7] [8]
