I'd forgotten the second part of your question, about how many deaths?

I don't know. I've been aware of some who were murdered, some who committed suicide, but not a total of how many that died. One prisoner in Eloy, I recall, died of a heart attack because the CCA guards told him he had to go back to his cell and "drop a kite" (request an appointment)  instead of being taken to the hospital in the prison.  I think he was Hawaiian, but can't remember for sure. You could look it up.
