The Deonte Reed Story

This Saturday 12-14-19 on Behind the Blue Curtain our Guest will be Misti Gail, mother of Deonte Reed.  She will tell us what happened to Deonte while Deonte was an inmate at the Nacogdoches County Jail  being held  on two felony charges and a Class A misdemeanor before he ended up as a patient in ICU  on June 8, 2017.  On June 8, 2017 it was reported to the control room operator by inmates that an inmate was down inside the Nacogdoches county jail," said Nacogdoches County Sheriff Jason Bridges. "Jailers and medical personal responded to the scene.  Deonte was found unresponsive inside of a dorm where other inmates are housed."  Nacogdoches County Sheriff Jason Bridges said that the sheriff's office has identified certain protocols that should have been followed while dealing with a crisis medical situation. "EMS and Nacogdoches Fire Department arrived on scene and the inmate was transported to a local hospital.  The Nacogdoches County Sheriff's Office  conducted an internal affairs investigation into the incident, Sheriff Bridges says that since the start of the investigation, two employees that were involved in the incident have resigned.  Today, Deonte is a shell of his former self and the cost of taking care of him is astronomical.  Join us This Saturday Dec 14 at 10am Central 11am Eastern.  The call-in number is 646-716-4621 and press 1 on your phone if you’d like to join the conversation.  Please be mindful of your background noise and don’t use the speaker phone.  Tyrone K Dunmore, Ret Chicago Homicide Detective Joseph J Moseley, Former 12 Year Ft.
