Investigators on Wednesday turned over to a prosecutor their report on a prison riot a month ago, saying inmates could be charged with rioting, battery and other crimes.

……. The medium-security prison is located near New Castle about 45 miles east of Indianapolis. Since January 2006, it's been managed by Boca Raton, Fla.-based GEO Group. The company also has a state contract to house up to 1,200 inmates from Arizona's overcrowded prison system.
