He was scheduled to be released in April.

Those charges stem from a fight between Glover and inmate Michael Dawson, who died from his injuries around 9:20 a.m. Christmas Day.

Dawson was sentenced to 20 years in 2001 for a rape and aggravated assault in Polk County. He was also convicted of murder in Chatham County in 2008 and was sentenced to life.
