Sounds like a different account. Sounds like an account with some new details. What makes it sound more believable?
Prosecutors have a lot of discretion. I saw more in the second account that recommended a criminal charge than in the first account, to be honest.
I would not expect guards who murdered an inmate (or another guard) or committed manslaughter to confess. I would expect conflicting accounts in an incident like this, and I would expect at trial a jury to determine whether they believed the guards were culpable for injuries to and/or the death of this inmate. It seems odd that didn't happen.
JOHN ROBERTS: From time to time in the years to come, I hope you will be treated unfairly so that you will come to know the value of justice... I wish you bad luck, again, from time to time so that you will be conscious of the role of chance in life and understand that your success is not completely deserved and that the failure of others is not completely deserved either.
