A PRISONER from Barnsley killed another inmate by landing a single, deadly punch to his head.
Keiron Simpson, 26, pleaded guilty to the manslaughter of fellow inmate Robert Bryan at Sheffield Crown Court last Thursday. He will be sentenced on Tuesday, May 26.
Simpson, formerly of Smithywood Lane, Dodworth, was serving a 16-week jail term for burglary when he attacked Bryan, 43, on February 27 this year.
Det Sgt Andrew Knowles, the investigating officer, said: "Simpson attacked Bryan for no apparent reason – he may not have intended to kill him but anyone who makes the decision to strike another with force must consider the potential shattering consequences a single punch can have."
