Maximum security prison in Scioto County, Ohio, U.S.
The Southern Ohio Correctional Facility (commonly referred to as Lucasville) is a maximum-security prison located just outside Lucasville in Scioto County, Ohio, United States. The prison was constructed in 1972. As of 2023, the warden is Cindy Davis. The prison is perhaps best known for its April 1993 riot, in which a total of 450 prisoners participated, resulting in an eleven-day standoff between rioters and law enforcement. One corrections officer and nine inmates were killed during the riot. The riot has been described as one of the largest crises in Ohio prison history and one of the longest prison sieges in U.S. history.
