[Deus Asmoth]

(The following took place in 34.11)

I recently had a dwarf tantruming repeatedly. He eventually punched another dwarf to death and got sentenced to a year in prison, followed by fifty hammerstrikes. Jump forwards a game month, and I get an announcement that he's suffocated. I zoom to the location, and he apparently got killed by the captain of the guard in the middle of the food stockpile (the captain punched him about five times, breaking his neck on the second). In any case, my question is: can a dwarf that tantrums in jail deconstruct their own chains? I've been trying to reproduce it since then with no success.

[Dorf and Dumb]

I would guess nobody bothered to put him in prison in the first place, leaving him to the hammer.

I believe they can break their own chains.

They can definitely break their own chains if they're still throwing tantrums. Not sure I've seen them do it otherwise, though - but that doesn't mean it can't happen.
