A judge has dismissed charges against six people in the death of a Michigan prisoner who lost 50 pounds over two weeks and died of dehydration while being restrained
A judge dismissed charges Monday against six people in the death of a Michigan prisoner who lost 50 pounds over two weeks and died of dehydration while being restrained in 2019.
Lancaster’s life already was in peril when he was moved to an observation cell at the Alger prison and died three days later, the judge said.“This is not the end for us,” Lancaster’s sister, Danielle Dunn, said. “We will fight for an appeal and continue to advocate for other families like ours as well as current incarcerated citizens.”
Nebel said Department of Corrections policies at the time may have contributed to a “perfect storm” and Lancaster’s death,Charges were dismissed against the nurses and Scott Sprader and Benny Mercier, who were high-ranking prison officials. Different charges are pending against two corrections officers.
