So basically a man who was in police custody following a "welfare check" froze to death. I have no idea why the Sheriff's department thought they could cover this up and get away with it, but apparently they did, because they never even bothered to release any kind of statement until after a local news channel reported on it, following statements from the ER doctor who tried to treat a man who was already a corpse. The statement they released is an appallingly obvious lie, where they claim the man was conscious and alert as he was taken to the hospital for "medical evaluation" arrived there that way, and only after he'd been in the ER for some time did he die, which completely contradicts what the ER said and has in its reports. The guy had a temperature of 72 degrees when the ER got him. Also, camera footage from the jail's loading dock was released which shows deputies carrying the already obviously dead man over to an SUV before loading him into it, and the deputy who leaked it got fired in retaliation. The family is suing, but I really can't help but think that the entire department here should be arrested and charged with torturing this man to death.
