California inmate's torture, beheading of cellmate was missed by guards, report says

Guards at a California prison reportedly didn’t notice that an inmate had reportedly tortured and decapitated his cellmate in 2019, having reported that both men were alive after making their overnight rounds.

In addition, one of the guards lied and key witnesses weren't interviewed during the department’s investigation, the report claims. Inmate Jaime Osuna, 31, allegedly made a makeshift knife that he used to behead Luis Romero, 44, in their cell in the early hours of March 9, 2019.   He also allegedly removed one of Romero’s eyes, a finger and part of one of Romero's lungs and cut the edges of his mouth to make it look like he was smiling, the report says. Osuna was even wearing a necklace made out of Romero’s body parts when guards finally found him later that morning, the Times reported. Both inmates were convicted killers.
