Brian Harmon's Preventable Death | Rochester News

from Rochester News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

A preventable death at Monroe County Jail has ignited political fallout: Brian Harmon died of sepsis just nine days after booking, with medical staff allegedly failing to act. The state report, handed to County Legislature President Yversha Roman last year, wasn’t shared with colleagues until this week—sparking Democratic outrage and calls for accountability. While Roman remains silent, Democrats vow to review the findings and probe medical care, even as a lawsuit by Harmon’s family looms. With tensions rising and answers scarce, the legislature braces for a messy reckoning. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
