A New York prison guard accused of failing to intervene as fellow officers beat an inmate to death pleaded guilty to reckless endangerment Friday after jurors deliberating over a more serious manslaughter charge said they were deadlocked.

A prosecutor told a jury that three former upstate New York prison guards on trial in the fatal beating of Black handcuffed inmate were part of a "gang" that took part in an act of "sheer, unimaginable brutality."

The pleas came two weeks before the trial for guards accused in the death of Robert Brooks, who was beaten while handcuffed at Marcy Correctional Facility in December.
