Jury faults prison chief over Cummins skeletons saga
The Lincoln County grand jury in Arkansas faulted former prison superintendent Thomas Murton as a publicity opportunist after unearthing three skeletons at Cummins Prison Farm. The panel returned no indictments and urged no charges while confirming a 1930 map showed an old cemetery on site. Murton called the report a travesty of justice and was fired by the Board of Correction for insubordination and fiscal irresponsibility.
