Gonzalez v. Hickman

N/A

OUTCOME: Confidential

Decedent Manuel A. Gonzalez, Jr. 43 years of age, was a correctional peace officer of the state prison China for 16 years. On Jan. 10, 2005 Gonzalez was allegedly stabbed by inmate Jon Christopher Blal ... ock in the reception area of the prison, where inmates awaiting transfers to other prisons are housed. Gonzalez, who at the time was routinely distributed sack lunches, was married to Sylvia Gonzalez and together had six children. He was not wearing a protective vest at the time. Blaylock was serving a sentence for 75 years for attempted murder of a peace officer. He had a history of mental health problems and had previously assaulted prison staff and other prisoners. The Gonzalez family filed a 100 million lawsuit in U.S. District Court Los Angeles naming former Corrections Secretary Roderick Q. Hickman, former Chino Warden Lori DiCarlo and former State Corrections Secretary Jeanne Woodford. Gonzalez’ family claims the prison system administrators contributed to Gonzalez’ death because they failed to issue Manuel a stabproof vest and instead stored them in a warehouse. This contention was later dismissed by the court. The family also claimed the prison system administrators failed to properly house Blaylock. DiCarlo had written to state officials pleading to have Blaylock transferred to a higher-security prison in Vacaville. This is the first case of an on-duty guard being killed in a California prison for two decades.
