It is definitely the guards' fault that the heating system malfunctioned,since they are also responsible for building maintenance.
Also, since the guards are all medical doctors, they should have been carefully monitoring Mr. Murdough's reaction to a cocktail of anti-psychotic medications.
Mr. Murdough had been carefully looking after his health, I'm sure. There is no chance that a homeless alocholic could have other conditions that contributed to his demise.
Thank you for pointing out that Mr. Murdough and his family should not be thought of as having any kind of personal accountability for their actions in any way.
Only prison guards should carry that burden, no one else.
I am so proud that the USA has an astronomically higher incarceration rate than any country on Earth, including Russia and China.
The big-government/big-corporate crony-fascist prison/industrial complex is your friend.
According to the city officials, Murdough was locked alone into his 6-by-10 cinderblock cell at about 10:30 p.m. on Feb. 14, a week after his arrest. Because he was in the mental-observation unit, he was supposed to be checked every 15 minutes as part of suicide watch, they said. But Murdough was not discovered until four hours later, at about 2:30 a.m. on Feb. 15. He was slumped over in his bed and already dead.
When Murdough was found and his cell opened, his internal body temperature and the temperature in the cell were at least 100 degrees. Those temperatures could have been higher before he was discovered because the cell had been closed for several hours, the officials said.
His family allowed him to wander off. They admit that. Clearly blame aplenty to go around. Just as clear is the guards do share some of that.
I see you sarcasm and raise. As a veteran he diserved better.
