There was no plan.

Read the story of people calling loved ones afraid to go to sleep because of the gas, afraid they would not wake up. I hope the State's Attorney has the courage to prosecute those responsible.......this was not a failure to act in five minutes......this was the failure to act after hours of known danger. Some people should be spending many years in jail for this.

Tort reform simply allows dangerous and incompetent government to continue. Sure it save taxpayers money, but what it did to his family is unforgiveable, and try to support a family with 200k.........fortunately he will be getting workman comp payments, and hopefully the sheriff's office will give him vocational rehab, and he can return to work in some capacity. What a terrible tragedy which reinforces how screwed up our politics have become denying victims fair recoveries.
Their families will probably get huge pay-outs.Mr Ichi wrote:No mention or concern for the 2 inmates that were killed? What happens to their families and loved ones?

I have looked at some of mine, and you begin to realize how small 200k is when somebody has a health problem like paralysis. I am so thankful that we have had good insurance during my health issues, and I am ecstatic that other families are getting health insurance. I do not think people understand how we all are so fragile and one illness away from bankruptcy.

Oh yes, I know about medical bills. Mine are in the hundreds of thousands. We are fortunate to have very good insurance.
Those two dead inmates probably won't have much in the way of medical bills, but the CO most certainly will. His medical bills should be covered for life.

There are more things than medical bills that bankrupt people. This paralyzed CO is still going to be making his same salary for quite awhile until disability and such kick into play. If he does not, then the powers that be need to lose their jobs.
