Fire safety failings blamed in Nashville jail tragedy

In Maury County Jail a cyanide fire killed 42 people after prisoners could not escape. The jail lacked sprinklers and smoke alarms as state codes did not require them. An automatic release system was not mandated, forcing staff to use seven keys to free 56 inmates. Officials cited an inspection praising the jail as among the best in the state, while noting the facility ranked 18th of 102. The governor ordered a committee to assess risks in other institutions. Andrew Zinmer, 16, was charged with arson and remained in critical condition.
