James Durnin was my husband's grandfather. My husband never met his grandfather, since he was killed before my husband was born. My husband's mother was only a teenager when her father was killed. She always told stories about her father - about his Irish roots, his work with inmates at the prison, and his fair and compassionate nature. He sometimes brought inmates to his home to feed them before they were permenantly incarcerated. At the time that James Durnin was killed, it was rumored that the killer actually acted on behalf of a group that wanted an elevated position within the prison hierachey.
