A FOX6 News report from June 2025 counted two deaths at the Milwaukee County Jail since March 2025. The person who died is not named in the sources, and no circumstances are given. Elected officials have criticized the sheriff's office over transparency and jail safety, and the sheriff's office responded by listing changes at the jail, including suicide-prevention measures. Advocates say families are still seeking answers, and the sheriff's office disputes claims that it has failed to act.
