Guard attacked by double-murderer on California death row
SAN QUENTIN, Calif. (AP) - Officials say a guard on California's death row has been injured by a condemned inmate who previously killed two of his fellow prisoners.
The correctional officer was taken to an outside hospital Thursday for treatment of several cuts including what officials called a significant facial injury.
He is expected to fully recover.
They say he was attacked with an inmate-made weapon by 49-year-old Anthony Delgado. The attack took place while Delgado was being examined by San Quentin State Prison's medical staff.
Delgado was originally sent to prison in 1994 to serve a five-year sentence for assault with a firearm.
But he was sentenced to death in 2000 for killing two inmates, both at a state prison in Corcoran. He killed one in 1998 and the second in 1999.

"There is a point in the history of a society when it becomes so pathologically soft and tender that among other things it sides even with those who harm it, criminals, and does this quite seriously and honestly. Punishing somehow seems unfair to it, and it is certain that imagining ‘punishment’ and ‘being supposed to punish’ hurts it, arouses fear in it." Friedrich Nietzsche
Delgado's habeas case has been fully briefed before the California Supreme Court since October 24, 2017.
