The leader of a state association of corrections officers says a manager at the Potosi Prison who was stabbed three times yesterday by a capital-punishment prisoner is in good enough shape to talk to him. The Missouri Corrections Officers Association says the manager was stabbed in the head, the back and the collarbone. The Corrections Department is trying to learn what provoked the attack, which happened in the manager’s office. The Department hasn’t revealed the victim’s name, but says he was stabbed by inmate Roderick Nunnelly, who is under a death sentence for kidnapping, raping and murdering a 15-year-old girl in Kansas City in 1989.
