Summary

San Diego County just paid $3 million to the widow of Keith Bach, a 63-year-old diabetic man who died in jail last September after being denied insulin — ruled a homicide by neglect. Despite multiple pleas for help, jail staff ignored his requests, falsely marking him as refusing medication. His death sparked a lawsuit that led to this settlement — part of at least $86 million paid since 2015 for similar jail deaths. New protocols now require senior nurse alerts and electronic insulin reminders for diabetic inmates. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
