Background
Pasquotank Correctional Institution is a state prison in Elizabeth City, North Carolina. The institution houses male close custody inmates and has a capacity of 896. There is also a 256-bed minimum security prison adjacent to the prison, which was funded by a $87.5 million prison construction program approved by the North Carolina General Assembly in July 1993. On October 12, 2017, Pasquotank Correctional Institution became the site of the deadliest escape attempt in North Carolina history when four inmates attempted to escape from the facility, killing four facility employees in the process. Three of the four inmates involved in the escape attempt have been sentenced to death, while the remaining inmate was sentenced to life in prison without parole.
