The convictions of D3, D4 and D6 on the 3rd charge were unsafe and quashed because the conviction depended on partisan inmate testimony that was inconsistent with and not supported by independent CSD officers and CCTV; conversely, the additional 10-month consecutive sentences on D1 and D2 were appropriate and not manifestly excessive given the savage nature of the attack in a maximum security prison and the public interest in deterrence.
