The Washington State Department of Corrections and Monroe police are investigating an inmate's fatal overdose. Jade Jefferson, 25, was found dead in his cell at the Monroe Correctional Complex on Jan. 9. This week, the Snohomish County Medical Examiner's Office said Jefferson, who was serving time for robbery and theft, overdosed on methadone, according to corrections spokesman Gary Larson. Methadone is commonly used to treat drug addiction, but not at Monroe. However, it is sometimes given to inmates suffering severe pain, Larson said. |
