Thomas Tavernier died on January 22, 2018, while held at the Reception and Medical Center Main Unit, a Florida state prison.

No cause of death, medical history, or account of his final hours is given in the available record, and no family or personal details are recorded. The death is known only from that departmental listing, so the agency's classification remains its own claim.
