An inmate at the Dallas County Jail is found dead in his cell — now an investigation is underway to find out what happened?
Sheriff Mike Granthum says 26 year old inmate John Murray, Jr. of Selma was found in his cell unresponsive last week.Murray’s body was then sent to forensics — for a toxicology report — and a full autopsy to determine the cause of death. “The jail’s in a dorm-type setting where each individual inmate, there’s two to a cell. Of course, it’s still early in the investigation and I can’t release too much. But there’s no visible sign of any type foul play or anything at this time,” Granthum said.Granthum says Murray had been an inmate at the jail for several years — awaiting trial on a capital murder charge.
