Open Justice can reveal he was 69-year-old Johnathan Peter Trubuhovich .
He died yesterday - allegedly assaulted by a prisoner less than two weeks ago.
A family spokesperson tells our newsroom the loss is still very raw and they want to know how it could happen.
They'd hoped he'd get a non-custodial sentence at his December 15 hearing - to be released before Christmas.
