Good Samaritan inmate secures 11-year cut in prison term
In Raleigh North Carolina an inmate who disarmed a fellow prisoner who grabbed a deputy's pistol outside a courtroom had his 25 year sentence reduced by 11 years. Judge Edwin Preston cited the doorway to the courtroom being unlocked and the inmate defusing a potential hostage situation. The robber James Mitchell, serving 40 years for second degree murder, was being taken to an arraignment when the incident occurred. Deputy Sheriff Sherwood Searcy described the gun snatching and escape.
