Blackout/Whiteout Poem
back Lawrence Phillips
is suspected of killing his cellmate in a Central California prison, officials said Monday.
Phillips'
cellmate at Kern Valley
State Prison was found lifeless early Saturday and later
pronounced dead, prison spokesman
Lt. Marshall Denning said in a statement.
Phillips,
39, was once one
of the nation's top college football players at Nebraska. He played for the St. Louis Rams, until being released in 1997 for insubordination. He also played for the Miami Dolphins and San
Francisco 49ers.

NFL career with
the 49ers in 1999.

Phillips
is serving a sentence of more than 31 years. He was convicted of twice choking his
girlfriend in 2005 in San Diego and later that year of driving his car
into three teens after a pickup football game in Los Angeles. It wasn't clear
if Phillips has an attorney.
He is suspected of
killing Damion Soward, a 37-year-old inmate from San Bernardino County serving
82 years to life for a first-degree murder conviction.
Prison officials said they suspect a second
inmate at the prison of killing his cellmate. It's unclear if the two
are related.
John
Munoz, a 24-year-old sentenced to 42 years on for sexual battery and other charges in Los Angeles County, is suspected of killing cellmate, 41-year-old
Rattanak Kim, who was serving a sentence of 35-years to life for conspiracy to commit murder in San Diego County. Prison
officials are investigating both deaths along with the Kern County Coroner
and Kern County District Attorney, prison officials said.
