Died in prison
One of 30 people whose names were not reported
An unnamed man held at Attica Correctional Facility in New York was one of 33 prisoners killed on September 13, 1971, when state police, National Guardsmen and volunteers retook the prison during the uprising. The record lists his cause of death as gunshot wounds sustained in the crossfire during the retaking. Who fired the shots that struck him is not stated in the source.
Cause of death, as reported: Killed by staff (disputed). The record lists the cause as gunshot wounds in the crossfire when state police, National Guardsmen and volunteers retook the prison, and no official ruling or family account is given for this individual, so the account is contested only in the sense that the wider retaking has been disputed.
