MILLEDGEVILLE, Ga. - The GBI has charged an inmate at Baldwin State Prison with killing a fellow inmate.
Authorities say 30-year-old Carl Eric Merkerson was already serving a life sentence in Milledgeville for a murder in DeKalb County. Now GBI Special Agent Tom Davis says he's charged with murder in the death of 30-year-old Terrence Demond Bowen.
Merkerson allegedly beat up Bowen, who was found in his cell unconscious Tuesday. Bowen was taken to The Medical Center of Central Georgia, where he died today.
Bowen was serving a life sentence for a February 2006 conviction for rape and burglary in Douglas County
Lets see... Convicted murderer kills convicted rapist. Prosecute, or give him half the money saved?
I would make sure he had a rooom matee every day.
Mayhe could help the state out since it takes so long to inject a killer. Mr. Brown will not be missed.
