The 26-year-old from Scottsdale was housed in a cell with other inmates, but detention officers saw him punch himself in the face, so he was placed in solitary confinement under a mental health supervisor.
Detention officers, while making routine cell checks on Thursday night, saw blood on the window of Corkhill's cell door.
They found that Corkhill had pulled his right eyeball out of its socket with his fingers. Doctors were unable to save the man's eye.
