Jail Ignored Her Pleas for Help
from Charlottesville News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
A woman died in custody at the Western Virginia Regional Jail after her family claims she was ignored by staff who dismissed her worsening condition as mere drug withdrawal. Despite multiple hospitalizations and documented medical needs, she was denied critical medication and care — even as inmates and officers reportedly witnessed her suffering.

She passed away just days after being released, still in agony. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
