The state of Wisconsin will pay a former inmate at the Lincoln Hills School for Boys 300-thousand dollars for an injury caused by a prison guard.
The guard slammed a door on the inmate's foot, causing serious injuries. Prison guard Jeff Butler was angry at the time and resigned shortly after the incident. Witnesses said he didn't know the inmate's foot was still in the door.
The inmate, whose name hasn't been released, had become disruptive and refused to go into his room. The injury is one of many allegations made during an investigation into possible crimes at the juvenile facility over a two-year period.
