Another inmate at San Quentin has died from what is believed to be complications from COVID-19, bringing the death toll at California’s oldest prison to 13.
John M. Beames, 67, was pronounced dead Tuesday at an outside hospital, according to a news release from the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation. The cause of death will be determined by a coroner. Beames had been on death row since 1995 after being convicted of first-degree murder in Tulare County forthe year before. The child had previously suffered a broken leg, broken ribs, burns and bruising, and evidence at trial showed she had been hung by her neck.
There are currently 717 people on California’s death row. Beames was the eighth death row prisoner believed to have died from COVID-19, the disease caused by the coronavirus.
