Statesville Haunted Prison has been widely considered one of Illinois' best haunted houses for almost 20 years.
More than 160 inmates have been killed in the last 15 years, and the state has one of the nationâs highest inmate homicide rates. Yet the death of 24-year-old Nicholas Anthony Rodriguez stands out. Rodriguezâs missing organs are âstill part of the investigationâ at the prison in Vacaville, 40 miles southwest of Sacramento, Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation spokeswoman Terry Thornton said Friday.
