Quote:Rikers Island guards let diabetic Latino inmate suffer 14 hours and die without insulin
Quote:According to the investigation, Correction Officer Eric Jacobs ignored Mercado’s pleas for help and twice stepped over Mercado’s dying, unconscious body while processing other inmates.
Jacobs has a history of excessive use of force against inmates and insubordination against his superior officers, but he was not the only officer on duty as Mercado plead for his medication, then became too sick to move.
