Two deaths overlooked in supposedly safe areas, and a sicko on the loose

July 1st, 2008

In the Prince George County jail, Ronnie White, 19, who was being held in solitary confinement at Prince George’s County Correctional Center the died of strangulation and asphyxiation — meaning someone strangled him to death — but he also had two broken bones in his neck, according to autopsy findings.

A few hundred miles north, in Brooklyn, New York — the bastion of manners and friendliness, to be sure — a woman died on the floor of the Kings County Hospital emergency room on June 19, 2008, after she keeled over and fell out out of her chair, landing face down on the floor. She thrashed about on the floor for awhile, then became still, emergency room video shows. In this case, no one, including other patients and people in the emergency room, including what appears to be another woman who was siting across from the 49-year-old deceased woman, did anything to help the woman — even after she collapsed to the floor.

To warrant his deviation from federal sentencing guidelines that would have put Stewart in prison for 30 years, the pussy-footing judge said Stewart’s 30-plus years of helping poor, disadvantaged, and unpopular clients led him to be lenient. Just shoot me now, please.
