‘They were moving me all around and I had a broken neck.’

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.

    Stories like this is why I find it plausible that Epstein killed himself in jail.

    Jails are full of incompetent, cruel workers. They use outdated tech, and don’t properly maintain it. Unfortunately, someone dying or killing themselves in jail, even if they’re under a suicide watch, even if they’re a prominent figure, is all too easy to believe.
