North Carolina taxpayers are paying three former inmates at the prison $62,500 to settle lawsuits claiming the former warden and supervisors wouldn’t clamp down on murderous gangs who terrorized them. They were among five inmates formerly held at Lanesboro Correctional Institution, who said they were stabbed by gang members who operated openly in a prison wing overseen by Jeffrey Wall. (John D.
