10/17/16 Ryan Reilly on dying in jail before any trial

“Sandra Bland died one year ago Today: And since then, at least 810 people have lost their lives in jail” Ryan Reilly discusses dying in police custody. “Deaths inside American jails frequently go unnoticed, sometimes even unrecorded.” Reilly gives all the details to Scott, including the attempt by prison officials across the country to conceal the true numbers of deaths, and how you’re far more likely to die in jail if you have any kind of medical condition. All of that and more on today’s episode of the Scott Horton Show.
