Fiancé of tragic Alabama prisoner Daniel Williams, 22, who died after ‘two days of rape and torture’ describes how his body was covered in cuts and bruises when she visited him in hospital

The fiancée of an Alabama inmate who was allegedly killed after being beaten and raped for two days has revealed what it was like to visit him hours before his death.

Daniel Williams, 22, was serving a 12-month sentence for second-degree robbery at the Staton Correctional Facility in Elmore, Alabama, when a guard found him unconscious in his dorm on October 22.

His family claims the prison director told them he had a “drug overdose,” but prison insiders told the Political reporter from Alabama that he had been “kidnapped, tied up, assaulted and sold out” by another prisoner “for two or three days.”

The father of one was pronounced brain dead upon arrival at Jackson Hospital and provided palliative care, his family said in a statement GoFundMe campaign. He was taken off life support on November 5 and died four days later.

His fiancée, Amber, says she is still in shock over the condition she found him in when she visited him in hospital and has no idea how she will raise their daughter.

‘How should I tell her about her father? Why isn’t he here? Why did he never come home,” she said WTV 13.

“I went to the hospital and the nurses told me he had been very badly attacked and beaten,” she added.

“And when I came into the room, he had bruises all over his arm, down to his fingers, he had bruises here.

“He had cuts up and down and bruises on his legs. It was bad.’

His father Terry Williams said Daniel was brain dead when he saw him, and his family was forced to make the difficult decision to cut off his life support after he was moved to palliative care.

He said he was furious with the director and said: ‘I called the director and cursed him out. I said, “Dude, do you know this isn’t an overdose case? You know exactly what happened. How can this crap happen like this?” Well, it’s currently under investigation. And that’s the last time I even spoke to the director.”

Amber says she is still in shock over the condition she found him in when she visited him in hospital and has no idea how she will raise their daughter.

Terry and his wife Taylor Bostic claim their son’s body showed signs of physical abuse, including that “his hands were tied.”

The couple claims Williams’ doctor described the alleged abuse as unlike anything he had ever seen during his 30-year medical career.

In addition to bruises and apparent bindings, Bostic claims a nurse told her and Mr. Williams that there were “visible handprint bruises between Daniel’s legs.”

The family said they requested a rape kit, but claims their request was initially denied. They claim hospital staff finally examined him on November 1 after an attorney was involved. The results of the kit are still unclear.

Mr Williams and Bostic say they are now committed to getting justice for Williams, who left behind a son and daughter, both aged one year.

The outraged father said, “We have to stop this. If I can save a few lives, I’ll be grateful.”

“I went to the hospital and the nurses told me he had been really attacked and beaten,” Amber said.

“He had cuts up and down and bruises on his legs. It was bad,” Amber added

Terry Williams, his father, also said he couldn’t raise enough money to bury his son. Instead he will be cremated.

He wrote on social media: ‘I will let everyone know the date and time as soon as they tell me. Thanks everyone, I really appreciate everything.

“Daniel Terry Williams fly high son, keep mom and grandma company, justice will be served. I love you son, until we meet again.”

His mother Tammy wrote online: ‘My world, my everything is gone, why why why I promise you son, I will do everything in my power to get justice for you.

“You didn’t deserve any of this, they took you from me, they took you from your wife, your daughter. You asked me every day to watch your daughter. I promise you, son, that I will be there for both of them.

“Your dear beautiful daughter, you are a beautiful woman, and I will do everything I can. I’m here for your son, I’m here for your daughter, I’m here for your wife.

“Every day I talk to you to please keep an eye on them, don’t let anything happen to them, I promise you I would and I still will. I love you Daniel, you’re my sunshine, my only sunshine, and they took you away, but I’ll see you soon, baby.

‘I love you, you will see me again soon, I love you to the moon and back.’
