Fox News
Eric Ramos, 33, of Gage County, Nebraska, has been convicted in a second trial of first-degree murder for killing another inmate during a 2017 prison riot.
Galindo was found dead in his cell on March 2, 2017, following an uprising by prisoners, and investigators said he had been severely beaten and stabbed 130 times. An autopsy determined Galindo died of smoke inhalation from a fire when other inmates set towels on fire and pushed them through a broken window in Galindo's cell.
Investigators said Ramos was one of several inmates who attacked Galindo, but he is the only one to face charges in Galindo's death.
