>> CHARTS: Prison homicides rare at Dayton-area facilities
There was one homicide at Lebanon Correctional during the years 2000-14, according to a 2015 report by the Correctional Institution Inspection Committee. It came in January 2003, when an inmate stabbed and then suffocated his cellmate. Among the state's 26 prison homicides during that period, two occurred at the Warren Correctional Institution in Lebanon.
The CIIC found in an earlier report that Lebanon Correctional had the state's highest number of violent incidents from 2012-14, with 2,595. Violence overall in Ohio prisons declined by 12 percent from 2012-14, according to the CIIC.
