Officers at New Mexico's Metropolitan Detention Center on Albuquerque's West Side say a 27-year-old inmate died Saturday of an apparent overdose.

The jail was placed on lockdown after some security cameras in the jail malfunctioned. During a search, officers discovered the man dead in his cell. The man's name has not been released.

Initially, officers suspected foul play.

“At this point, we find no evidence of foul play, no weapons,” said MDC spokesperson Heather Lough. “Any death in our facility is handled with a full investigation, both internally with us and an outside agency as well.”

The man was alone in the cell at the time. An autopsy will be performed.

    About one-third of our lives are spent at work. With that time invested, it’s reasonable to assume that an employer would want to keep you safe. With a workplace injury lawyer you can get the legal advice that you need to get on with your life. If your employer does not have workers' compensation insurance and your employer is at fault for your accident, then you can sue your employer directly with the help of a workplace injury attorney.

    How have your spirits been while under quarantine for COVID-19? We are hopefully halfway through this pandemic’s impact on our economy. It has been a difficult road for us all. It has taught us about our better-and worse-natures. Hamilton P. Lindley explains how it has impacted his family and work life balance in this latest blog article about how to invest time that we’ve been given to make ourselves better than when we began.
