PHOENIX (AP) – A prison guard who was held captive for 15 days by two inmates last year faced one of her of captors again Monday, giving sometimes-heated responses as he questioned her in court.

Lois Fraley gave short answers and stared into the audience as inmate Ricky Wassenaar, who is acting as his own attorney during his trial, asked her detailed questions about her accusations that he sexually assaulted her. She looked angrily at him once after he asked her to read a transcript of an interview she did with an investigator.

Wassenaar, who said before the trial that he would have Fraley “in shreds” during questioning, maintained an even tone during his cross-examination.

The prison standoff began Jan. 18, 2004, after Wassenaar and another inmate, Steven Coy, overpowered guards and staff in the kitchen using makeshift knives. They tricked the second guard in the watchtower, Jason Auch, into letting them in.

Coy, originally from Lewiston, Maine, is now housed in the Maine prison system as part of a deal that sent Brendan Thongsavanh, who was convicted of killing a Bates College student, to the Arizona prison system. Thongsavanh has since been returned to Maine, where he is awaiting a new trial.

Auch was released after a week, but Fraley was held for 15 days in one of the longest U.S. prison hostage situations on record. Wassenaar is on trial on charges including kidnapping, assault and sexual assault.

Wassenaar remarked at one point Monday that Fraley didn’t appear to be afraid of him when he entered the tower, noting she had attacked him after he hit Auch in the face with a 3-foot (90-centimeter) metal paddle.

“Yeah, I was scared of you but I was going to take care of it if I could,” said Fraley, who has gone public with the story of the sexual assault.

While Fraley maintained her composure during the early part of the questioning, she became visibly more angry as it continued. At one point, she leaned forward in her chair, almost yelling at Wassenaar where he sat across the courtroom.
