William Leary
William Leary, 51, died on March 17, 2019, at the Milwaukee Secure Detention Facility in Milwaukee, where he had been held for almost three weeks. Friends called him Bill, and one friend described him as a genuine, goodhearted man; his longtime girlfriend, Lynn, wants to know what happened. He had recently been hospitalized for GI bleeding, and before his death he went to the nurse after feeling unwell and hyperventilating, was seated and given water, and was later found unresponsive in his cell after a fall. The Milwaukee County Medical Examiner's Office said the cause and manner of death are pending toxicology, and the Wisconsin Department of Corrections and Milwaukee Police are investigating.
