## Resource

St. Louis County’s detention centers are on the brink of a medical crisis as a budget standoff threatens to cut essential healthcare services—potentially forcing inmates into costly emergency hospitals, halting daily meds, and slashing clinic visits. County leaders warn this is unprecedented, while advocates like Bobby Bostic, who works with detained teens and has personal ties to the justice system, argue denying care violates constitutional rights and could cost the county more down the line. With a critical funding bill stalled and a June 30th deadline looming, officials scramble to avoid emergency measures that could endanger inmate health and strain public resources.
