Prison Fight Ends in Fatal Blow | Minneapolis News

A deadly brawl erupted inside Rush City prison when inmate William Davon Hall, 29, is charged with second-degree murder after his cellmate Stephen Scott Washington, 40, died from blunt force trauma and possible asphyxiation during a fight. The altercation, which began over a lost dreadlock and escalated into violence, occurred just hours after the two were placed together — with Hall allegedly tampering with the cell window and showing signs of physical confrontation. Despite claiming they’d been fine earlier, Hall’s version of events clashes with witness accounts and medical findings, raising urgent questions about safety and accountability behind bars.
