Big Sandy Inmate Gets New Time
KENTUCKY....
The U.S. Attorney's office for the Eastern District of Kentucky says 48 year old Steven Michael Reid, an inmate at the Big Sandy Federal Prison, has been sentenced to an additional 15 years. Reid, of Norfolk, Va., pleaded guilty in August to assaulting a corrections officer and possessing a prohibited object. Prosecutors say Reid stabbed the officer in the stomach through an opening of his cell door, using a weapon he had made by rolling up two magazines with a sharp piece of plexiglass, smeared with feces, on the end.
