Ohio Public Media Statehouse News Bureau

30 years ago this week, one of the longest prison riots in US history finally ended after 11 days. 400 inmates from three gangs at the Southern Ohio Correctional Facility in Lucasville held that prison for nearly two weeks, and when the siege was over, one guard and nine inmates were dead.

Ohio Public Media Statehouse News Bureau correspondent Jo Ingles takes a look back at the riot and its lasting impact.
