In the spring of 2019, 46-year-old Holly Barlow-Austin was detained in the Bi-State Justice Center jail in Texarkana for a probation violation. She was HIV positive and bipolar. Her husband dropped off her medication at the jail. Then they … just didn’t give it to her at first, and then only sporadically.
I read the LA Times series, and I also read a lot about her in the memoir "Opium Fiend" by Steve Martin. Watching people die in jail seems to be a specialty of many guards.
Do you remember reading about Roxanna Brown?
