Officials Fired After Forcing Mentally unwell women to provide beginning alone in jail Cells

 Tammy Jackson was pregnant and in solitary for a trespassing charge—unable to pay her own bail—when she went into labor. Her cries for help went unanswered by officers at the jail, and as a result, she gave birth by herself, and her daughter Miranda spent her first moments on Earth in a very dark concrete room designed to carry serial killers.

The fact that a mother gave birth by herself in an exceedingly concrete cell is horrifying and one would think that the Broward County Sheriff’s office would take action to form sure it never happened again. However, one would be wrong.

Last month, another unstable woman was forced to provide birth to her son in an exceedingly prison cell, in line with a letter sent to Broward Sheriff Gregory Tony by the Broward Public Defender’s Office.

“She was denied the dignity of a single bed and therefore the assistance of a physician,” consistent with the letter, signed by Executive helper lawyer Gordon H. Weekes Jr. “The repeated and callous indifference to the medical needs of a laboring, insane mother is of grave concern.”

Imagine for a flash that this very same jail made national headlines last year for this exact same thing and that they are so callous and reckless that they'd eff again a year later after nobody was held accountable. Well, that's exactly what happened.

Because this was the second time it happened, Sheriff Troy could now not ignore the horrifying negligence of his brass. The Miami Herald reports that the sheriff’s office fired Colonel Gary Palmer and Lieutenant Angela Neely Thursday after an administrative review of the circumstances surrounding the birth.

“I conducted a review of the matter and determined that command level failures occurred by Colonel Palmer and colonel Neely during this case,” Sheriff Tony said in a very statement. “They grossly failed this agency and this inmate.”

The insane woman was arrested after she was caught on someone’s home security footage walking around in their home. She had harmed nobody and was in dire need of the mental state and medical help. rather than help, however, she was kidnapped and put in a very concrete and steel cage on Sept. 6 as her baby boy grew within her for 3 more weeks.

The unsound woman gave birth on Sept. 27. Medical records show the girl was complaining about contractions and labor pains over 12 hours before the biological process that day — but she was ignored.

The despicable irony of this case is that it transpires just three months after the state enacted the Tammy Jackson Healthy Pregnancies for Incarcerated Women law, which is meant to prevent this very thing from happening. This goes to point out how useless laws are that try and rein in police incompetence and cruelty.

Despite lambasting the highest brass for forcing this latest victim to administer birth alone during a cell, Weekes stopped in need of claiming their actions were criminal, despite them clearly violating the constitution.

The Eighth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution reads as follows: Excessive bail shall not be required, nor excessive fines imposed, nor cruel and weird punishments inflicted. we feel that forcing women to deliver their own babies alone in concrete rooms is excessively cruel.

“In my opinion, the law established a specific spirit of how women should be treated, with dignity,” Weekes said. “The law doesn't contain provisions for what would happen if office violates it, but an inmate would probably be able to bring a civil case,” Weekes said.

So, rather than actually holding the cops to blame for violating their oaths to the constitution, Weekes suggests asking the taxpayers for money. Seems legit.

After being forced to grant birth in jail, the girl was ordered released as her crime didn’t amount to the time she spent in jail. Though she was released, her child was then taken from her and given to the Department of youngsters and Families. a tragic story all around.
