Name not reported
This person was one of six people who died of COVID-19 complications while held at the California Institution for Men in Chino, according to attorneys for incarcerated people in a court filing. The attorneys said the six had serious medical conditions or factors such as age that made them especially vulnerable, and that most or all of them lived in dormitories when they became ill. The attorneys said prison officials and a court-appointed receiver rejected a request to move high-risk people to other housing. Those objections to the housing decision are the attorneys' account, not an official finding.
