Suicide Attempt Gets Biblical. Jesus Wants His Parker Back

A Marion County Jail inmate tried to commit suicide by hammering an ink pen in to his left eye with a Bible, officials said.

Corrections officers said they used a Taser to prevent Lester Williams, 28, from further harming himself on Saturday night.

Williams’ eye was not seriously injured.

After being treated at Shands hospital at the University of Florida, Williams was brought back to the jail, strapped down and placed on suicide watch.

Williams has been in the jail on charges of sexual battery, false imprisonment and battery on an inmate and a law enforcement officer since 2003.
