Attacker is Serving Life Sentence
Watson has served 10 years of a life sentence from Humboldt County for first-degree murder and discharging a firearm causing great bodily injury or death.
The Associated Press found in a 2015 analysis that male sex offenders were being killed at a rate double their percentage in California’s prison population, often because they are targeted by other inmates for their crimes against children.
The California State Substance Abuse Treatment Facility and State Prison in Corcoran houses more than 5,400 inmates.
