That study computes that you're 7x more likely to get murdered in prison than in the "comparable non-prison community", but "comparable" here seems to be only for age/gender.

I imagine the homicide rate is a wee bit higher than average for drug kingpins, particularly those seen to have ratted out 100+ people, even unintentionally.

Yeah this guy presumably had a wide ranging network of people who he knows, who haven't been caught, but may be exposed ... by him. This dude now poses a risk to a lot of very worried people right now and presumably the people he relies on are running for cover / maybe less likely to protect him.
