A grand jury is examining the reported failure of a prison lock in connection with the murder of corrections Officer Dustin Pedigo. The officer's death occurred seven months prior. Allegations have been made that inmates could manipulate faulty cell door locks using a simple object.

Some state lawmakers have appeared before the grand jury panel to discuss the circumstances surrounding the murder. They are looking into "red flags" that may have contributed to the brutal stabbing.

Further details about the investigation and the grand jury proceedings are available from the source.
