A murderer serving time in a maximum-security prison was killed by another inmate.

John Mansfield, a convicted killer, was tragically found dead at HMP Whitemoor near March, Cambridgeshire. The high security prison had been his home since he was sentenced to life in 2007 for the murder of his 63-year-old neighbour, Ann Alfanso. On Sunday, prison officials discovered Mansfield's lifeless body and immediately contacted the authorities.

A 44-year-old man has been arrested on suspicion of murdering Mansfield at the prison, and an investigation is currently underway. The alleged killing took place in the prison's close supervision centre, according to a spokesperson from Cambridgeshire Police. The Prison Service also released a statement, stating that they are cooperating with the police's investigation into Mansfield's death.

Mansfield's tragic end comes 14 years after he was first incarcerated for the brutal murder of Ms. Alfanso. The victim, who suffered from reduced mobility, was found dead in her home in Manchester in 2006. She had been stabbed around 20 times in the head and neck. Mansfield's violent tendencies were not limited to his first victim, as he received a second life sentence in 2014 for stabbing another inmate with a broken plate during chores.

During his sentencing, the judge described Mansfield as a "violent and very dangerous man who poses a considerable threat to the public." He also stated that it was highly unlikely that Mansfield would ever be released from prison. This second life sentence only solidified Mansfield's reputation as a dangerous criminal.

Mansfield's tragic death serves as a reminder of the importance of following safety procedures and being vigilant in high security environments.
