Another inmate dies at Michigan’s Huron Valley Correctional Facility, bringing the total to five since mid-May — including 69-year-old Dasie Forbes, on palliative care for chronic illness.

Autopsies confirm causes for some deaths, but others remain unexplained. Prison officials deny a mold crisis, citing clean air tests — but questions linger.
