(AP) – An inmate accused of killing a guard at an Arkansas jail
has apologized in court.
The Texarkana Gazette reports that Tramell MacKenzie Hunter made the comments
Monday during his first appearance in court on preliminary charges of capital
murder and battery. Hunter is accused of killing correction officer Lisa Mauldin
and injuring another officer in an attack Sunday at the Miller County jail in
Texarkana.
The newspaper reports that Hunter said — in his words — “I just felt like
she was messing with my life.”
Judge Wren Autrey says Hunter will be transferred to a maximum security
prison.
