Ronald Chambers
Ronald Chambers, 55, died in custody in Dallas County, Texas, according to CNN. CNN reported that he was found on the floor of his cell at the Dallas County jail around 6:30 a.m. on November 15, 2010, and taken to Parkland Memorial Hospital, where he was pronounced dead. The Dallas County Sheriff's Office said he had many health complications after arriving at the jail the year before. The Dallas County medical examiner's office said it would take six to 12 weeks to determine the cause of death, and the manner is listed as pending. A Texas Attorney General custodial death report gives his date of death as November 12, 2010, at a state prison, which differs from CNN's account.
Cause of death, as reported: Cause not yet determined
Reported by: Dallas County Sheriff's Office (the agency that held him); Dallas County medical examiner's office (medical examiner or coroner).
