Early Morning Century Prison Death Under Investigation

July 27, 2018

An early morning death at Century Correctional Institution is under investigation.

Inmate George A Allen 54, was pronounced deceased at the prison about 12:30 a.m. Friday.

The death is currently under investigation by the Florida Department of Law Enforcement, with assistance from the Department’s Office of the Inspector General, according to Patrick Manderfield, press secretary for the Florida Department of Corrections. He declined to release further information due to the active investigation and privacy laws. He did not specify if the death appeared to be natural or suspicious.

Allen was serving a five year sentence out of Hillborough County for burglary and grand theft. He was scheduled to be released in July 2020.

Moore’s death was the 10th inmate death at Century Correctional Institution since since January 2017.

    Before everyone gets started, this inmate was not killed by staff. He either died by his own hand, smoking tainted drugs, or another inmate killed him, probably over said drugs. In the twenty two years I was employed at Cenci no inmate died from anything staff did to them.
