A 28-year-old man died in his cell at a prison in the Northern Mariana Islands on Monday, November 11, 2019. A Saipan Tribune source told the paper he had hanged himself, but the Department of Corrections and the Department of Public Safety declined to confirm the cause. Police said their investigation was ongoing, and the paper did not publish his name, so the account of how he died rests on that unnamed source.
