Cobbins in protective custody at West TN prison after expressing safety concern

A co-defendant convicted for his role in the torture slayings of Channon Christian and Christopher Newsom is in protective custody at a prison in West Tennessee.

Letalvis Cobbins, 26, expressed a concern for his safety while being classified at a Nashville prison by the Tennessee Department of Correction, according to Department of Correction spokeswoman Dorinda Carter.

"Based on his statements that he feared for his safety, the warden in Nashville recommended to the warden at Hardeman (County Correctional Center) that he be removed from the general (prison) population," Carter said.

Carter said she did not know the specifics of his concern or whether an internal investigation was ordered after he raised the concern with correction officials.

Cobbins was moved to Hardeman last Friday and is in a protective custody unit at the Whiteville facility, which is run by the Corrections Corporation of America, a private company that contracts with the state of Tennessee.

The medium-security prison has 2,016 beds. Carter said she did not know how many inmates are in the protective custody unit.

Cobbins, 26, was convicted in August of first-degree murder in the death of Christian and of facilitating the murder of Newsom in January 2007 and sentenced to life without parole.

His brother, Lemaricus Davidson, 28, was convicted Wednesday of the first-degree murders of the Knox County couple who were carjacked while on a date. A jury will begin deliberations Friday on whether he should be put to death by lethal injection, sentenced to life without parole or life in prison, a mandatory 51-year sentence.

Two other co-defendants, George Thomas and Vanessa Coleman, are awaiting trial.

Cobbins had been at the Charless Bass Correctional Complex in Nashville where the Correction Department assessed where he should serve his sentence. Maximum-security facilities are reserved for death row inmates, but Cobbins could be sent to such a facility, based on his behavior, Carter said.

While in protective custody, Cobbins may mingle and share meals with a small number of inmates away from the prison's general population.

He could be locked down in his cell up to 23 hours a day if necessary, based on threats to his safety.

A protective custody review committee assesses inmates' status every 30 days, but safety concerns are looked at daily, Carter said.
His day is coming!
