The interim director of a state prison in Nuevo Laredo, Mexico, has been killed less than three months after the Zetas drug cartel staged a massive jailbreak at the facility, a Mexican official said Tuesday.
Rebeca Nicasio was stabbed to death by an inmate Monday when a fight broke out between a large group of prisoners during a routine inspection, according to the attorney general in Mexico’s Tamaulipas state. Nuevo Laredo is in Tamaulipas, just across the border from Texas.
Nicasio had replaced the prison’s previous director, who disappeared Dec. 17 along with 153 inmates, after gangsters drove up to the prison’s service entrance and whisked away scores of prisoners in a yellow school bus and a caravan of sport-utility vehicles. Guards did nothing to stop them.
