“On or around the end of March 2022, another inmate filed a lawsuit alleging that Mr. Devil possessed cone pipes and pipe bombs,” his legal team wrote. “In response, the correctional staff conducted a search of the entire dormitory, at which point Mr. Devil was found with one (1) writing instrument and chips. However, another inmate in the dormitory was found in possession of shins, prescription drugs and other contraband.”
