SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — Authorities investigating the death of an inmate who won a $1.4 million judgment after being raped by a prison guard say they found no sign of trauma on her body or foul play at her cell.
Priscilla Elizabeth Chavez, 29, was found dead at Utah State Prison on Friday. She was being held on charges that returned her to prison nearly a decade after a guard took her to a secluded gate house and “viciously” raped her, court records say.
