David O’Quinn
David O'Quinn died less than two weeks after he was taken into jail custody. According to the reporting, his father asked jail officials to give him medication for severe mental disorders, and they did not. The account says he died of a bacterial infection in cuts he had received during a beating and restraint in a restraint chair, after his own excrement got into the wounds. How the injuries happened is the central point of dispute in the reporting.
