The Connecticut Department of Correction’s Security Division and the Connecticut State Police are investigating the untimely death of an inmate at the Garner Correctional Institution in Newtown. At approximately 11:05 a.m. on Sunday, March 25, 2018, health services staff determined that inmate Jallen Jones required treatment and enhanced supervision in the In-Patient Mental Health Unit (IPM). The IPM Unit is an infirmary setting with mental health and medical providers on scene to care for the most acute mental health and/or medical cases. During escort and placement into IPM, inmate Jones became non-compliant and combative with staff and then became non-responsive. Life saving measures were immediately initiated and Jones was transported via ambulance to a community hospital where he was declared deceased at approximately 12:25 p.m. “The death of an individual under the care and custody of the Department of Correction is a very serious matter and we are fully committed to cooperating with external law enforcement. There are no immediate indications suggesting that excessive force was utilized. However, we are in the infancy stage of an active investigation and will respond swiftly and accordingly to any determinations contrary to the initial findings presented,” said Commissioner Semple. The inmate, identified as 31-year-old Jallen Jones from Atlanta Georgia, was serving a ten year sentence for Robbery 1st degree. He had been incarcerated since 9/12/2014. The Chief State’s Attorney is involved with the case. The exact manner and cause of death will be determined by the State Medical Examiner’s Office. |
