A Brooklyn man who had served 40 years in prison for a home invasion robbery that left three dead in the 1980s died at Sing Sing Correctional Facility during the 11-day-old wildcat correction officers strike,

Correction officers in New York's prison system have been on strike for nearly two weeks, and a tentative agreement appears to have been reached.
