Douglas Garland — recently convicted of murdering a Calgary boy and his grandparents — is in hospital again after being beaten by inmates for the second time in three weeks, CBC News has learned. The assault took place at the Edmonton Institution, just hours after Garland was transferred to the maximum security prison from the Calgary Remand Centre. Garland is in stable condition and was kept in hospital overnight as a precaution, said his lawyer Kim Ross. The prison was aware of Garland's history of being assaulted at the Calgary Remand Centre. Just hours after he was sentenced, on Feb. 16, Garland was attacked at the Calgary Remand Centre by four inmates.
