Reply to comment by [deleted] in Left Unmonitored In His Cell, He Etched His Suicide Note Into a Wall On Rikers Island by hau5keeping

Do be fair, don't you think it's wrong that security is falsifying documents? Maybe you don't agree that this guy deserves to be paid out for - but this is very clearly a systematic issue and it should be punished.

She should be punished, but the state should absolutely not pay for anything. We need to change the laws such that people committing suicide in prison is not the fault of the state but in fact a stupid decision that the person made to kill themselves.

She's an arm of the state. The state wronged him.
