Relatives of Earl Graham, one of the inmates who was fatally shot last Saturday at the Lusignan Prison, are questioning the decision by guards to use lethal force and they say evidence shown to them suggests that he was not among those who were reported to have been rioting.
Graham, a 52-year-old father of one, was incarcerated after he was sentenced to three months for charges of malicious wounding, assault and resisting arrest.
Although a post-mortem examination has given Graham’s cause of death as being due to shock and haemorrhaging caused by a gunshot injuries to the chest, the family says he was shot in his back and a video of him after his shooting shows no evidence of him having any injury to the chest.
