- Report: State probing overdoses at Morgan County prison
The Tennessee Department of Correction is investigating multiple overdoses at Morgan County prison, with reports indicating staff used Narcan after suspected K2 involvement. The department denied confirming the overdoses but emphasized its zero-tolerance policy on contraband. The incident follows an earlier case where an inmate allegedly killed an officer, leading to an indictment and transfer of the accused to another facility.
