Damien Ward, a violent prisoner with a history of assaults, killed Dennis Green, a burglary convict, in a surprise attack at HMP Fosse Way. Ward, known for his debt-enforcing role in gangs, approached Greens cell, chatted calmly, then struck him, causing a fatal head injury. Green, described as humorous and loyal, was serving a twelve-month sentence for burglary to fund his drug habit. Ward, with a traumatic past and mental health issues, initially claimed self-defense but later pleaded guilty to manslaughter. He was sentenced to seven-and-a-half years, with two-thirds to serve in prison.
