- Imagine falling and breaking your neck, but no one takes you to the hospital right away.
That’s exactly what a local woman says happened to her inside the St. Clair County Jail and now she’s trying to make sure something like this doesn’t happen to anyone else.
Lisa Brown takes full responsibility for why she ended up briefly behind bars. But now she says a 20-day jail sentence has left her with a life sentence of partial paralysis and disability.
The full investigation here: www.wxyz.com/news/local-news/...
I’m a retired RN. The health care professionals in that prison should not only lose their professional licenses, they should be in jail. How was this not a crime?
have you ever worked in a prison?
@@laa6549l am also a retired nurse that worked once in an overcrowded prison for just One Week. The game playing was not not only with the inmates, but also the staff. Even the young female staff had significant notable "hardness" about them. One such person was a guard that escorted me while l was passing meds in the maximum security area. She would take the inmate's empty paper drinking cup, crumple it and toss it on the floor. I later asked her how long she had worked there. Five years, she told me. The boss kept me on the phone for two and a half hours, begging me not to resign when l called him from home end of the week.
@@laa6549 That is THE worst comment I have ever seen!! One does not have to work in a prison or jail to see what happened to this woman is obviously medical neglect!
@@laa6549it shouldn’t matter wether they’re in jail or not . EVERYONE deserves to be treated humanely. It isn’t like she was a threat to them and they were scared for their safety. She COULD’NT MOVE !!!!! All they had to do was get her medical attention. I’m sure there’s those who do fake injuries and illnesses but they can’t assume she was. They should’ve tried to find out what happened to her and what it is she hurt then call for medical attention. No excuses for this treatment.
@@laa6549 Mouth-breather.
Why do the authorities insist they did nothing wrong when they CLEARLY DID?
It’s called the Donald Trump excuse.
@@Ivehadenuff
Leave your severe case of TDS out of this.
@@IvehadenuffHunter
@@IvehadenuffYup. Deny, deflect, delay.
@@Ivehadenuffwhy bring politics into this ???
They never even put her in a neck brace?!?
This isn't just incompetence.
It's malicious.
Exactly. They don't care if you live or die.
Funny how she has a walker AND a cane, but no neck brace for her BROKEN NECK.
@@kiillabytez .....you mean AFTER two neck surgeries?
Do you think people that survive a broken neck wear a brace forever?
@@kiillabytez she had a broken neck 3 years ago. you dont seem to understand the purpose of a neck brace. its to prevent further injuries or help while it heals.
@@kiillabytezIt’s not too late to delete your comment 😆
Wow. It took them 3 days to realize she wasn’t faking it? Horrifying. They should absolutely get sued.
Evil and wholy incompetent
They're STILL not convinced, and neither am I.
THey should NEVER have moved her - and likely they would have contributed to her injuries.
They will. It's VERY hard to sue the county tho!!!
And jailed
Two neck surgeries prove her case. She asked to go to the hospital for days.
I hope she wins her lawsuit.
Same.
I can't imagine her not winning. Doesn't her rights to medical attention apply here? It was so clear that she had something terribly wrong with her and they felt like dragging her around for 3 days was no biggie. It should be an open and shut case. BUT I guess these days you never know.
@@jennifertheobald9823right, theirs video proof
She is gonna get PAID I’m pretty sure
Indeed!
Bet you not ONE PERSON was fired. Not one.
st Clair county is standing behind saying THEIR staff did NOTHING wrong and the blame is all on the company they contract the medical care with
Well no shit, there needs to be an investigation first. Or are you so caught up in the drama of "everyone but me gets away with everything waaaaaah".
Not one. Evil.
@@OregonCrow This happened 3 years ago. How much time do they need?
@@OregonCrow There was an “investigation”, but when cops investigate themselves, they are all for nothing. Accountability is only for peasants. And it was stated in this clip, so who’s caught up and what?
She only had a 20 day sentence, why would she be faking 🙄 omg. They owe her big $$$
for money lol you're so slow you'd have to speed up to stop
@@bootynbass9436 you're slow tf.. 20 days is not a long time in jail. if anything she's doing 2 in 1
They were pissed they weren't going to get the credit for doing it .
They’re medical staff are all mentally incompetent and treat every inmate as if they’re dodging a life sentence without parole. It’s the same with military health care where they treat everyone like basic trainees trying to get out of duty. In other words they’re trained to act retarded and cold toward every patient because 99 % they can get away with it.
She better WIN IN COURT!!
This is neglectful, abusive and completely unacceptable!!
Neglect is job #1 in prison
I was an RN for 22 years. The RN who was in that observation room should lose her license. She ignored glaringly obvious assessment signs of neuro compromise. She did not advocate for her patient and helped cause grevious harm.
You would be so shocked at how medical personnel treat incarcerated inmates and jailed people.
The medical standard is completely different.
@@ShellyCline
I know it is. It's a sick criminal mess. I was a psych charge RN. I dealt with LE regularly. I never worked in the jails but we took inmates on my locked unit. I retired in 2014. Ethically, I couldn't be a part of the for profit sick care industry another minute.
That RN is probably incapable of holding down a job anywhere else. That's the norm for prison and jail medical treatment.
@@Want2cJesus I don't blame you! That had to be very difficult to see.
How can you tell if it was fake or not?
Going to jail should not mean a death sentence.
... Sometimes
Not when your ex keeps threatening to have you arrested every chance she gets 🚔👮♂️
Eeehhhh that's debatable
@@SomethingInTheGroundyeah I hope you feel the same way if it happens to you, can happen to anyone everybody makes mistakes it's only a matter of luck if you get caught making one and please don't say you dont
Maybe LEARN to STAY in a bed!!! She CAUSED it ALL herSELF!!!
If a dog was treated this way it would be considered cruelty which is a felony!! Everyone involved in this inhuman treatment of this poor woman needs to be convicted and jailed! This is horrifying!!!
I KNOW RIGHT?? My thoughts exactly! Just Shows you the total disregard for human life in 2024...
I keep having the scary thought of what if she was black? Usually wyt people don't get treated like this during their time in jails and prisons, but they treated her like this anyway despite not being black. I guess a black woman would have straight up never been sent to the hospital at all of then...sheesh. Women as a whole still get ignored more than men when seeking medical treatment, even in a setting like this.
A dog wouldn’t go drinking and driving.
Amen
Whyte people care more about a dog than an actual human.
This is how every inmate is treated, every time. I was kept on the floor with 103 degree fever, despite them having access to my medical records clearly proving I was a kidney patient with a series illness, i was ignored for days until they finally sent me to the state hospital two blocks away. I had a friend die in the county jail in '07. Jail is not where you want to be if you need timely medical care. I was there with sepsis for FIVE DAYS. The jailers assume you're faking to get out of the horrible place you're in. Insanity covered by indifference.
I’m terribly sorry you had to go through having a life-threatening infection and being treated so poorly. You matter. The staff is supposed to take care of your health needs because you can’t do it for yourself. I hope life is better for you now
I’m so sorry that this had happened to you. I hope you have recovered and are going after them too for neglect!! Having a fever like that alone is life threatening and should have been a massive indicator that YOU were not well at all!!!
Let me fix that sentence. "Insanity covered by indifference, cover by STUPIDITY."
A lot of jail workers are not very intelligent. I once lived in a town where a jail official refused to call an ambulance when an inmate with severe diabetes fell into a diabetic coma. His mother was visiting and kept begging for help, and they told her if she didn't shut up, they'd put her in jail too. By the time the prison official relented and called an ambulance, he was dead.
jail staff are overpaid
They were mad they didn't create the injury and given credit for it
"In court filings they say that Lisa's allegations are just not true."
Hmm, well let's see. We have the video of you all dragging her around, NOT feeding or hydrating her for almost 3 days, and medical staff taking her vitals while literally doing nothing else for her.
And we have the medical records to prove her neck was broken and she was (and partially still is) paralyzed.
So, what part of her allegations exactly arent true?
Exactly.
Police/ government officials lie all the time ,even when their actions are caught on video.
What makes matters worse is the fact that juries often believe the government regardless of what the evidence shows.
👏👏👏👏👏
"We've investigated Ourselves and found NO wrongdoing!"
They put food in her cell just out of reach to try to force her to "stop faking" when it was clear she wasn't faking. Surely there should be some type of charge for putting food (or other necessities) near a patient who cannot physically reach the food but can see and smell it and not assisting them to get to and/or eat the food.
I'm no fan of people who get plastered and then get behind the wheel, but this woman didn't deserve this. They treated her like a bag of produce, leaving her face down in that cell....absolutely disgusting, inhuman treatment.
Agreed. This was really bad. I hope she gets some kind of justice.
She might not have been plastered , she might have had a glass of wine at dinner and it caused her to register as intoxicated. It doesn’t mean she was just guzzling down a case of beer and chasing it with whisky 🥃. I know people who registered intoxicated after not drinking much as all. And they really thought they were safe to drive. It’s why I don’t drink at all. And the fact too many people are being drugged out in public places in their drink. I’m sure Riley Strain the young man in Nashville was drugged. Nashville is having lots of problems with people getting drugged. They might order 1 drink and then can’t walk. Some are getting robbed while under the influence of what ever it is in their drink and some lured away and worse things happen. It’s so scary out there. No doubt she’ll never drink again or probably not drive again either. I think the jail employees need to be fired and not ever hold a job like that again. It’s a position of trust. And one should have been trained to know what medical emergencies are. They don’t have common sense to know a person is injured.
Nobody said she was plastered, drunk can mean buzzed and a slight drifting out of one's lane. Hell, drunk drivers are caught just because they have a headlight out.
@@KimberlyBishh no plastered has a completely different meaning.
America is comedy central of all the modern industrial nations.
That's terrible. And then they have the nerve to want to sue back that's pathetic!
That's cops.
The Sheriff is suing the contracted medical provider and not the woman/victim.
Why not take her to the hosp
What is the worst that can happen, the doc say she’s good to go back to jail ?
They need to be held responsible
Lazy they didn’t want to do the transport
hell they don’t even wipe their asses
You should not take people with suspected neck or back injury to the hospital, are you crazy?
@@bojohannesen4352 pay no mind to illogical,
just don’t die in a hospital
Oh yeah
I should be worried
Oh yeah
I’m temporary
Ha! Nahhh. Theybwill give her a break now. But did she xhange because of this? An alkie stays an alkie. Hope they get her help.. Cute lil dumpling.
They treated her like dirt, punitively.
agreed
This tells a lot on how bad our prison system really is
They do and our system is a failure.
so?
@@RIfMlLVrdhpPYbHCcTqjnEFGgNyKkuIt wasn't even the prison system, this was a holding cell at a jail, is my understanding. A police station.
And it's not just that, it's at the level of local government etc too.
Before this video, I learned about a couple who had their two children taken away WITHOUT ANY PAPERWORK and at 1am, and I myself have just been dealing with what comes across as a slander campaign just to cover up that people messed up. Yesterday, I decided that I really wanted nothing further to do with the people in question after they kept calling me to "help" me and I woke up this morning with a heck of a lot more peacefulness in my life, telling me that I did the right thing.
People kept suggesting all sorts of things about me without any kind of justification and certainly in hindsight, I suspect that it all was intended to cover up their own mistakes. I'd never asked for anyone's help but they ended up even suggesting that I needed help with filling out forms. (I'm well educated, have an IQ of 133 and am healthy). They even effectively had me SWAT-ted, but I'm currently in a country where this isn't against the law as it turns out. Once people who've never even spoken with you do something like that, your faith in such folks is just totally gone, I realized.
This is awful. Watching the way they moved her after having a spinal injury is just sickening. They did not care, they treated her punitively.
It was hard to watch, this poor woman. Also when they sat her up it was cringeworthy now knowing she had a broken neck/back.
That is what is bound to happen when your country runs prisons as a business.
Don't drive drunk multiple times and you won't end up in this situation. She did this to herself.
They never called in a doctor. An RN is not trained to diagnose a broken neck. Taking her blood pressure does not diagnose a broken neck either.
From I understand, RN's are prohibited from making a diagnosis. Maybe a Nurse practitioner could. But without a MRI, CT, or even a Xray how would they know? What the nurse should have known is that a patient with a possible spine injury should not be moved around in the manner that this woman was. Frankly most of us who are not nurses know that.
This is absolutely barbaric. These people should not only be ashamed of themselves, but also charged.
Wellll .it's not like they KNew her neck broke.
@@stormyweather8798 well that’s exactly the point. Those who checked her over were hired as medical professionals and as such should know better.
If she wasn’t paralysed because of the fall, they absolutely paralysed her. No matter what, they almost certainly did additional damage. The nurse/medical team AND every single guard/prison worker involved in this needs to face serious repercussions. This is evil.
Did you even watch the video? Which part of her is paralyzed, even remotely?
@@kiillabytez Uh, do you even understand the video you watched? She HAS partial paralysis.
@@er-ha Partial, yeah. Like partial gullibility?
@@kiillabytez Partial as in not full. Like, she has partial paralysis but some people are fully stupid, right? It’s fine if you don’t understand anatomy and disability but you can just search it. It’s not even as if it’s something incredibly uncommon.
@@er-ha 40 years ago I almost suffered a broken neck due to a diving accident. Since then, I've lived with chronic neck pain, so yes, I do understand.
Yes, some people can be stupid, yourself included.
OMGOSH! How can anyone deny the abuse that poor woman suffered that was CAUGHT ON VIDEO?!?!
This is a freaking disgrace!
Ironic for why she was in jail...
It's all about the power. These guards get high off of the power they have over these inmates. The worst part is they know they can get away with it because these monsters know they'll never be held personally responsible for their actions. I know this because I personally witnessed this behavior myself.
Ever since video evidence became readily available practically everywhere, The guilty has learned to come up with all kinds of excuses why your eyes are lying to you...
@@tjknox8936u know we ALL do things we regret and know we shouldn’t have done. That doesn’t mean she deserved to be treated like that. Unless u walk on water and have NEVER done anything u regret or wish I wouldn’t have done. There’s no excuse for this .
@amandacrawford4748 Did you ever think maybe thus was a twist of fate, for her to turnover a new leaf? That's 1 less person who knows they'll never drink and drive again because of these circumstances.
The staff that assisted her should all be charged with negligence for not admitting her to the hospital.
You have no idea how often this happens.. I was in jail once about 23 years ago and my Cellie fell from the top bunk and broke his nose and was unconscious. I never pressed that button on the door so fast. Nothing was done all night long and even when the guards did their rounds, did absolutely nothing.
Awful. I hope he is in a better place now as are you 💕
Even if she didn't fall, a back injury can happen anytime. She should have been sent to the hospital immediately.
But she did fall. Cervical spine fracture homie and you’re not supposed to pick people up like that after a fall.
She win the lawsuit
Yet the state of Arizona took over 30 years too execute Frank Atwood for the kidnapping and murder of Vicki Lynne Hoskinson. What on earth is wrong with our system?
A back injury could have happened to the person she could have hit when she was drinking and driving.
JThe could haves stopped when she was arrested and incarcerated. The neck injury was an apparent accident. Followed by inadequate care.
She shouldn't have been moved like that. Terrible.😮
They completely ignored the basics when someone might have a possible head or spinal injury: you do not move the person until they are stabilized physically.
If she only hadn’t drank and drive
That’s is absolutely atrocious, this poor woman. I hope justice is served.
It was, the second she was rendered unable to ever drive drunk again
I'm disgusted with how we treat each other. I'm beyond disappointed.
Are you disgusted about how animals are treated or is your compassion limited to the human species? Bet you say all that while eating chicken nuggets and 🥩 All lives matter leave meat off your plate.
Yes, drunk drivers are disgusting.
As someone with a spinal cord injury, this is unbelievable, inhumane treatment. There's no excuse for this. You don't assume someone is faking illness or injury without proving it! If you don't care about the people you're in charge of, at least cover your narcissistic butts by taking them to the hospital to have them checked out.
An 8th amendment rights violation.
They honestly do not care if you are in jail. They just don't believe you no matter what
People fake their illnesses all the time. I just watch a video of a woman faking her 2nd seizure of THE DAY after being caught stealing. The first faked seizure was after being caught earlier that day stealing.
@@user-xh9yx8gx9c More like people in jail lie all the time, so they didn’t believe her
Yes ✔️
Irresponsible Unprofessional Disgusting they knew she fell off the top bunk!
I wouldn’t want these people to walk my dog!
Unfortunately when you are in jail you are treated worse than a dog.
@@user-oc8kz1zj4mFortunately!!! These animals in human form are the lowest of lows amongst creatures. Dogs don't go around intentionally threatening other people's lives like a drunk fool behind the wheel.
It's a remorseless industry.
That’s why I stopped breaking the laws that put you in jail/prison. It was easy.
@@palepride7530 yeah the lady was drinking and driving, you know how many people have done that and never went to jail, no excuse for what they did to her
As someone who has had a cervical fracture...it is incredibly painful and takes months of PT to begin to heal
My brother in law was in jail for 5 days and hes a diabetic and they REFUSED to give him his insulin. Claimed he was faking it, until he looked visibly unwell and was on the floor. He thought he was going to die.
Health care in jails and prisons is horrific
This is torture and unacceptable! These people need to learn to treat inmates with respect and dignity, shame on you all!
Especially for drunk driving. If she had taken someone’s life then maybe I could see why they felt that she didn’t deserve humane treatment. But that’s NOT their call to make !!!!
“Her allegations are just not true”… Which part? Where she fell off the top bunk and injured her spine? The part where they manhandled her onto a wheelchair despite her injury and screaming? The part where the manhandled and dragged her around the cell for three days? The part where the “nurse” watched them do this but didn’t notice she couldn’t move and, apparently, either didn’t ask what her symptoms were or didn’t believe her? The part where no one noticed that she couldn’t stand? The part where she didn’t go to the bathroom for three days? The part where they repeatedly forced her into a sitting position? The part where she was finally taken to the hospital where actual medical experts did x-rays and tests and determined that she had suffered a catastrophic spinal injury and had to have surgery? The part where three years later she still can’t walk unaided, can’t reach up without great difficulty, the part where she can’t even brush her own hair?
This is “cover your asses” at its worst.
Except for as a nurse COA means to stand up for what's right and not with the authorities are telling you. (And of course documenting that you did) Is making sure you do everything you can for your patient that's within your reasonable ability. 🥺 Instead this nurse took up the cops version of cover your ass.
Exactly right! Both of you! Let's face it, to them she wasn't a human being she was just a prison number 😢 xx
@@Gothchops completely agree with your response. This is a disgrace!!
@Angel4UTwo Absolutely! It was so heartbreaking to watch. I also have a crushed disc in my neck C5, compression wedge fracture T4, slipped L3 and L4 so I know what type of pain she is living with. It's heartbreaking 💔 xx
🎯
Just because someone is in jail doesn't mean it's right to treat them like they're garbage. This is sickening!!! She needs to sue and I hope she wins.
@Mexicash616
No, we’re not forced to pay for these incompetence. They’re specifically directed to be incompetent because it saves money. We want to put more and more people in jail, but we don’t want to pay for it.
Well, these taxpayers are going to have to pay for it
I worked in a county jail. I had an inmate complaint of chest pain. I told my supervisor I’m calling 911 immediately. I was told not to call 911. The jails response was “ These inmates will fake anything just to get out of jail even if it’s to the ER.” I found at later on after my shift was over that that inmate did suffer a heart attack and because his heart attack was delayed in getting him to the ER, he was put in ICU and are stabilizing him for surgery. I resigned the next day. These correctional facilities are inhumane! You go to jail as a punishment. You don’t go to jail to GET punished. Big difference.😡
These CRIMINALS need to be held accountable for the treatment of this woman. This is absolutely disgusting.
the only criminal is the woman
Completely agree 👍 they most certainly are criminals
Aren t you forgetting she commited a crime that could of been somebody that she could of injured by drinking and driving .
Shes a drunk driver, no she doesn't need any protection, at all.
@@juliecowen3641 WOW you get it too.... If she had not been locked up he probably would have ran over a child or adult and not gave a care in the world about it..... We need harsh laws for these drunks that don't consider anyone else but themselves.
How could the cops deny any wrongdoing when they got video of them tossing her around like a rag doll? Especially since she repeatedly asked to be taken to the hospital and they just thought it was okay to toss her around like that?!?!?!😡😡😡
It wasn't just the deputies they literally said the medical staff in the jail said she was fine. They are deputies not medical staff they trusted the medical staff to make that decision that was their fault to trust the medical staff. Unfortunately there are a ton of people who fake stuff like this that Is why they have a middle man between them and taking them to the hospital. Either way, your tax dollars fund this, so complain all you want, but until there are some actual consequences, it is what it is. There were multiple bad decisions from every party. The victim who was there for a crime dui the deputies who trusted the staff instead of taking someones word that they are in pain and the medical staff for not recognizing that there was significant trauma to this ladies neck.
Second, they weren't tossing her they were carrying someone who was dead weight, and they were struggling to carry her. They definitely dragged her but didn't toss her.
@@devils_rebellion5332 Without out a neck brace it was the same thing. They had her neck flopping around like a rag doll.
If this is the case then no one should be put in jail even if everything is caught on camera
@@bartman9400Exactly the hypocrisy! The criminal system expects the public to take accountability for their actions but they can’t do the same. Absolute hypocrites.

This is disgusting and a flagrant display of disregard by CHX TX Inc and the jail employees for the wellbeing of an inmate.
I hope she gets every penny she sues for and this NEVER happens to anyone ever again.
What makes me angry about all of these cases is that they’re deliberately fucking up their jobs and they’re fitting us with the bill of their fucking mistakes and they’re never charged to pay restitution for their crimes.
This staff was stupid and should serve time in jail
they already do lol. stupid? they are jail staff. nobody wants those jerbs.
Not stupid , their psychopaths
Yes, very stupid. This is so wrong. Idiots.
Actual human beings don't sign up for those types of "jobs". Only useless, brain-dead, evil, amoral bastards would. They barely see anyone else but themselves, lets keep it real.
@@Charmander009 Honestly, jails don't hire the brightest people. They can be stupid and psychopaths at the same time.
No bedrails on the top bunk??? That's incompetent to damn well begin with!!!!!!! 🤬🤬🤬 Not passing urine? Not moving? Crying with pain???? Did that so-called nurse ( a DISGRACE to our Profession!! 😡) take any observations? Do any TYPE of assessment? Escalate ANYTHING??????
I agree with you, couldn't hear any audio, it will be interesting to see if any of the medical staff suggested an ambulance right away and that suggestion was plowed down, but banging the wheelchair into walls and doors tells me things about the jailers how they really see people like her, makes me wonder how they treat their own.
They probably can’t have rails because people might hang themselves using them
Good point about the railings, how old is this jail? I feel your comment is a top point
Who knows what the dynamics are in that jail, they need to be investigated by an independent agency. Maybe there was pressure not to transport people to the hospital due to staffing issues. The nurse should have recognized the seriousness of the matter and demanded that she be transported to a hospital. I get worried when for profit companies are put in charge of "caring" for people. Profits are their bottom line, not patient care, especially as related to inmate care.
Never heard of rails on top bunks. Most people seem to feel if you got yourself in there, too bad for you. Our city jail does. It's not the jails nor jailors place to judge nor impose punishment, but they do all the time. They say they can't keep a full staff, hardly anyone wants the job for the pay. So too often the ones they do hire leave a lot to be desired.
Absolutely appalling. I would sue the s*** out of that prison.
What prison? Are you drunk too?
WOW. just wow. just wow. poor soul.. I swear too goodness she better win millions for this GROSS NEGLIGENCE.

@@reuben1798I'm sure you would. It's an awful environment from what I hear, but the suicide rate is relatively low in jails. As long as you're not sick. There's one guy in a group I used to go to who had to go through alcohol detox without any medical attention in jail (which can be fatal).
@@zacanger Yes, that's why we hire people like that at my jail in Texas. We want the worst to be managing the worst.
OUTRAGEOUS!!! This reminds me of a homeless man who got arrested for sleeping on someone's yard. The sh*thead cops were really rough with him. They handcuffed him without securing him inside the back of a van. During the drive to the jail the driver was driving very recklessly and the poor guy was slammed around to the point of being knocked unconscious. I saw the tape of the whole thing. Once the van finally stopped the cops dragged his lifeless body out of the van by his leggs again banging his head a few more times on the van!!! I could NOT believe my eyes!!! Now the guy is permanently paralyzed and will be in a nursing home for life. He is suing as he should!!!
i don't even think it was someone's yard. it was property with insufficient trespass warning signage. he found somewhere no one was using so he could sleep through the night, as is biologically necessary for humans (sleeping, not diurnality). i've found places like that to sleep in a pinch. existing shouldn't be a punishable crime. he wasn't even asked to leave or given the chance first. she reveled in taking him in.
unless i'm confusing cases.

@@DoroNijimaruI remember that one. He was sleeping on a vacant lot that has a no trespassing sign on one end but not the other. Also the guy that they dropped on his head while getting him out of the cop car to go into the hospital. Even the staff treated that guy like he was faking!
There is no money that can cover this damage. Health is everything!
Another example to why a growing number of the public either fears, mistrust or hates law enforcement.
This is sick. Inmates are treated worse than animals sometimes.
Nurse ‘Ratchet needs to loose her license 🤨
Nurse ratchet would never have been so cruel. Bitch that she was.
That is probably the reason she is a jail Nurse. Obviously, she does not have the intelligence or compassion to be the field of medicine, IMHO. Thus, she is a prison nurse.
As a Physician I am disgusted ! As a patient myself of a C5-C6 injury I am disgusted. I know what this lady has gone through. I pray they are held responsible and hope she gets all her function back. 🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼

@@bjornragnarsson8692 I’m so sorry🙏🏼 how are you doing now? It’s a good sign you have some movement back. It can be a slow process but I have seen miracles. I am much better still have more surgery’s ahead for c2-c3. I had severe narrowing aswell thankfully surgery released that pressure. 🙏🏼❤️
I imagine that they get to hear people's lies on a daily basis and have become immune to complaints from prisoners.
Jails usually have signs that say the cost of an ambulance ride which will be billed to the inmate. So I'm sure she wouldn't have minded paying the $180 (that's the general charge) for that ambulance ride.
I thought that also. They probably get told the same stories. But the fact she laid there, barely moved, didn't eat or use the bathroom should have raised some eyebrows at some point. So sad.
It doesn’t matter. You can’t deny medical treatment regardless.
Jails often don't hire the brightest people.
Absolutely horrendous for any human being to let someone suffer like that. I hope she gets her justice because now she has a lifetime full of difficulties because of these horrible people.
St. Clair County jail is known for ignoring medical issues. They are criminally negligent. God Bless Lisa and her family. You deserved better.
That's every jail. Number one killer in prisons and jails in this country isn't gang violence or drugs, it's medical neglect.
Most jails are like that. Even with their staff.
it seems like they have no consequences. too many people manage to wriggle into the field in order to have control over people and impact their suffering. they have a free pass for almost all circumstances. and even when something like this happens there is often no significant penalty.
I agree with you here l hope she ok ❤
the lack of neck braces is quite remarkable too. Guess they were going for some kind of record? Jailers jailers everywhere but no emts.
I worked a little over two years as an RN in the prison system. There is no excuse for this treatment. There needs to be accountability and education on this for jail staff. The deputies who initially found her on the floor, need to be educated. I understand there is A LOT of manipulation going on by inmates, but, She should have been transferred to the hospital if she couldn’t move her toes from a fall that high. Why would she be placed on a cold hard floor? I’m so sorry she was treated so terribly.
Inmates do manipulate however, poorly trained or not the corrections officers have a responsibility to approach every complaint of injury with caution and treat it as though its valid, regardless of personal opinion. A shame what happened to this woman and a shame that the county will have to bear the price of their staff's negligence and unprofessionalism
I don't think education would have helped these officers or the RN in this case. They clearly had a mindset as a group and were completely negligent and irresponsible. I'm amazed that not one person in the 3 days she suffered had it cross their mind to at least call to have her checked out. This is mind boggling to me. As @jerrymoore838 said every complaint needs to be taken seriously until proven otherwise. It's better to get someone help and they not need it than what inhuman behavior they did with this poor woman. I cannot imagine the pain she went through and to just be around some many people that won't help and just drug her around and left her for 3 days like an animal. They are just bad people. This kind of authority needs to be weeded out and removed. They clearly aren't capable of performing their job duties. This wasn't uneducated behavior this was some sort of power high with lack of empathy. This was just flat out ignoring that someone clearly needed medical attention by so many people.
@@jerrymoore838 she was in for dui, hardly a damn criminal!
@@firehorse66elaine If you'd ever lost an innocent loved one to a drunk driver, you wouldn't claim someone getting behind the wheel of the car while intoxicated isn't a criminal. She committed a horrible criminal act. HOWEVER - that doesn't mean anything in terms of how she was horribly mistreated and neglected here, and in a way that has caused her permanent harm. Criminal or not, none of the way she was treated here was okay, and she deserves every penny of the massive payout she's bound to get. They had a duty of care, and who knows how much additional harm they caused by dragging her around like that, on top of the delay in treatment for a critical injury.
This wasn't a training problem. 3 days isn't a training issue. 3 days... not eating, not moving correctly, not using the bathroom after being found on the floor...3 days isn't a training issue. It's abuse. Had she died, murder charges would have been appropriate. If a mother did this to her daughter, claiming she thought she was faking, and the daughter died, murder charges would follow. Here we have multiple people watching her possibly die, and yes you can die from cervical fractures. I'm shocked she didn't have more complications from this, like organ damage from no food or water for 3 days.
That was very wrong, the jail people should be ashamed of themselves, charged 😡
I had a neck injury from a car accident and I still deal with the pain from time to time. I can only imagine how much pain she was in…Jesus this was hard to watch 😮.
Not sure how they can deny it when you clearly see them dragging her around. The abuse and neglect looks equal to me. If someone tells you they fell how hard is it to believe them, put a cervical collar on and take them for evaluation. They owe her $millions and people should have been fired.
Especially since she didn't eat, drink or use the toilet. Even if the person was "faking" they are faking so well they could die.
The way these officers handled her could’ve caused further injury. Horrible inhumane treatment. Incredible.
Likely contributed to the severity for sure
My thoughts exactly!
This is how its always done we mean nothing to corprate dictators
I don't see how her backbone did not snap.
A little more than could have. It’s more like pretty damn likely.
im in tears, this was so unfair, even without audio she looks like she is in so much pain, how could they treat her like this :(?
The officers who heard her say she needed to go to the hospital and didn't take her there, need to go to prison. These are the people who are supposed to protect us, but they watch us suffer instead. Unforgivable.
OK she made a mistake and she’s paying for what she did when they put her in jail. The fact that she fell from a bunkbed and the officers did nothing to help her and take her to the hospital is negligent.
she clearly will not drink and drive anymore
@abbygirl, what did she do to end up in jail? Why wouldn't no one help her? I'm so confused. What happened to the lady who ignored her for days? I hope she sues. Did her charges get dropped?
Had she not been drunk and then drive drunk this would had never happened
@@rhondarichmond9259exactly. She could have paralyzed or killed someone.
@@barbara7611but she didn't
This jail and employees need to be investigated further.
They'll investigate themselves and find there was no wrongdoing.
Where there is smoke, there is fire
There evil no better than the worst criminals
I spent 180 days in this jail and they did not care about my health at all
@@ivdg46elooks like a multi million dollar lawysuit 😂
I thought we didn't torture prisoners in America, this is abuse, and abusing prisoners should be a felony
These corrupt cops need to be in prison.
They are.😂
Recently I watched camera footage of a prisoner that had a perforated ulcer. The infirmary nurse and multiple prison employees saw and heard this man saying he couldn’t breathe, screaming and begging for help. They ended up putting him in a observation cell where he was supposed to be checked on intermittently. However it showed the prison guard just swiping his card to pretend he’d checked on him, but he never once even looked through the cell window. Let alone opened the door! The poor man died in so much pain. The employees weren’t punished in any way either. Makes me sick.
Welcome to the police state, prison state, DEATH state. The people who should be protecting and serving, EVEN IN PRISON, are now the enemy of We the People.
That’s terrible. Locked up like an animal, in pain and fear until he died!
@@downhomesunsetyeah who cares bout animals it’s their fault if they weren’t born a human they can suffer and be locked up abuse and murder by human wth 😡 grow up and grow some compassion for other than your ass 🙄
This is disgusting They had no right to treat her that way
Everyone involved should lose their jobs over this. That is absolutely disgraceful they ignored this.
Poor woman. What a horrible situation
Absolute cruelty!! I fell off my horse and broke my neck 4 years ago. I was in excruciating pain for 6 weeks.I feel so bad for this woman. She should not have driven drunk, but this punishment is in comprehenible!
I’m very sorry for this person. I’m stunned. It hurt to watch this.
My son was murdered in jail by guards. This is neglect. Wrongful death.
Oh no😮. Condolences.❤
Sue the hell out of them!
This is horrific and I hope she wins an enormous lawsuit.
Paid out by tax payers not the ones that committed the crime. System has to change this.
@@sd1660 💯
@@sd1660it don’t matter 😢she deserve to be compensated for what happened..this is sad 😔
@@anamercier5511Why should innocent people have to pay for something the officers did? Garnish it from all their wages.
@sd1660 it comes from insurance paid with tax payer money, there's no increase in taxes, it's the city tax.
That's absolutely awful how they can treat a human being like that.
All employees who came in contact with her dragging her should be charged. Disgusting they are counter suing the jail medical staff. They should ALL be held accountable.
I am not a healthcare professional, but I have watched enough TV shows that when someone could potentially have any type of spinal injury, they immediately say do not move the person!!!!
Sends chills down my body. She must have been in excruciating pain
& terrified
This is unconscionable. When will these people be accountable?
Not in this world. Even if they Iose the lawsuit the taxpayers will foot the bill.
never.
Now there's a spell check word.😅
@@stormyweather8798 had to look it up 🤣
This is horrendous. All involved in the torture if this woman must be fired and charged with torture. This is horrific. I injured my neck years ago and cannot fathom how these terrible jailers ignored a broken neck. Once again taxpayers will pay for the ignorance and horrible actions of the police.
This is tragic.
Just because somebody is in "punishment" doesn't mean we can treat them inhumanly.
I know there are plenty of difficult prisoners that do things simmilar to this in order to be difficult. But medical attention should be a high priority. If you had a prisoner who was consistantly faking medical issues you could isolate them from gen pop and have a more "specialized" treatment plan for those individuals, but things like this should never happen, no excuses.
Even when people are in jail or prison, they deserve medical treatment. We are still in america. These are still american citizens.
Actually more than 40% of people behind bars in this country weren't even born in this country.
It seems that once you become an inmate you are no longer have any rights. I thank God every day that when I decided to leave the Uk and America was on my list, I decided instead to apply to New Zealand. Best decision I’ve ever made.
@@bobbinsew Laws softer on crimes there huh? lol.
@@PatrickBaptist-vv2bg I would call laws that outlaw cruel and unusual punishment being "soft on crime." American citizens have a right to not have cruel and unusual punishment, as happened in this video.
The America that used to be 50 years ago no longer stands. Every single one of our systems is a failure and they are failing purposely because they are destroying this country from the inside out and no, it has nothing to do with politics because both sides are playing the same game with the same goals. whenever you people finally decide to wake up to the truth from your ignorant false reality, maybe people can come together then and start to push back against the declining of this country that has long been planned. Until then, America is done for.
we investigated ourselves and found no wrongdoing
Got to love how those "internal investigations" rarely find ANY misconduct. So ridiculous
Bullshit they should care
Exactly how they operate
😉
That’s what they always say.
Thank you for sharing this story.
I was neglected by medical staff and then got hit by a car and ended up with a traumatic brain injury because of it because they said I was faking my condition, sue em baby, its absolutely atrocious this treatment
The jail nurse should be charged and arrested criminally,and the staff fired.These people are a liability to the public.
You can tell she wasn't faking by her feet. I have nerve damage and one of my feet sort of flops. The other sits up. Both her feet were flopped down in a way you have to force if you are fully functioning. The pain she probably felt is horrible. It's a burn from the inside as your nerves die. Had she been treated immediately she might have recovered better sooner.
All very true.
True
Yup and she drunk during this interview😂
@@nunyabuziness8421 Or she has neurological damage?
An RN should’ve been able to tell. That’s why they went to school.
God Bless you Lisa❤ I am so sorry you went through that ❤
Its amazing no one was fired or jailed over this negligence
No it's not shocking at all. You think they're actually going to fire anyone? They don't fire someone for having an itchy trigger finger, and they're not going to fire anyone for this.
They won't fire a civil servant of any kind usually. They will move them sometimes for a few years though. If anything they just find someone else to blame like the medical service they employ in this instant. American politics are just a never ending blame game these days, well most of the world is I guess.
This happens in prisons all over the us uneducated correctional officers
They weren’t uneducated, they were uncaring
@@jennifergomez6405 no they dont have an education. But your right they probably have no empathy either
Sue all of them for what they did to her! This is absolutely disgusting!! No one should ever be treated like that! They are ALL GUILTY!!! 😡
how this woman was treated is absolutely inhumane and unacceptable. i hope some semblance of justice is found.
she endangered the lives of people and coulda easily killed someone had she not been arrested and now you expect her to be rewarded with 5 star room service in a jail cell? if she knows she has issues with rolling during her sleep which everyone will know that then why did she not make the police aware of it so that she isnt forced to sleep on a very high bunk?
Incompetent correctional officers.
As a Correctional Officer for 14y, I’ve never seen such incompetence.
Sue the hell out of those idiots.
This is absolutely horrible, no one deserves what happened to her.
my arm was paralyzed from the shoulder down for 6 months. worst feeling of my life. i hope this lady really recovers
All i can say is sue . Sue the heck out of them!!!!!
Horrible. No way they did not notice her.
The citizens pay the bill for this. The people involved should pay for her support for the rest of her days.
We are responsible. We know our government is evil, but we keep voting for the same two parties who let it become this way and who will never fix it. The apathy of the American people is incredible to me.
@@strawpiglet I think this same way. I also think that in order to change or destroy a huge monster, you have to start small, like in a neighborhood, and then take a long aim of becoming big or strong enough to be able to come face to face with the monster. This takes dedication over one generation of getting it started and then a couple of continuous generations to keep it going. It requires stability and a group of people that will work together no matter what and will not be corrupted. It's difficult, but totally doable, so long as people would at least believe they could control themselves. Outside help is almost always needed. Where I live we had our neighbor bring us schools and proper education and industry. I would imagine a neighborhood that would hire teachers from the best educated places on earth could change how that neighborhood thinks about things in few years. People also need to trust that someone else knows the best. There are a lot of places to trip up, but this is the only way to build up rather than demolish.
@@Lawh Yep, I agree. We have to build and not expect things to change overnight.
They exacerbated her injuries by refusing actual medical care in a timely manner & by moving a patient every which way. Those 20 days turned into a life sentence of misery and pain. Shame on them. I wish her the best, poor thing.
Horrific what they did to her, inexcusable. And so was her decision to drink and drive, putting other's lives at risk.
Jailers dont give 2 shits about any inmates you silly news reporters !!!
Yeah, I think that's why they're trying to shed light on the conditions of this jail. Unfortunately, we're dealing with a privatized industry. It will take new laws to be passed to change anything.
Walk in their shoes sometime. Since all the mental institutions were closed down to save money, jails are where mentally ill people are taken after committing minor offenses. Jails have a very high population of the mentally ill. The officers have to deal with keeping gang members apart, breaking up fights and the fear that they themselves could be assaulted if they don't watch their backs. Not to mention prisoners throwing feces, urine and vomiting. It is a very difficult and ugly job. Correctional officers never get the recognition they deserve. Medical staff were making the calls in this case. They made a very poor evaluation of what needed to be done. Taxpayers will be paying for the mistakes of this for-profit jail health care system.
Well, considering she’s going to probably need lifetime care the settlement will be millions. So maybe the jail will care a little bit more. Or maybe not
