He died and the coroner ruled it a homicide. In 2014 a woman who was shackled and in handcuffs for 21 hours while in labor and while hospitalized for post partum treatment. At least 40 women were shackled in this manner. In 2017 a federal jury awarded over 6 million dollars to a woman who accused a Milwaukee county jail guard of raping her at least five times while she was 19 and pregnant. In 2016 a mentally ill female inmate went into labor and her child was stillborn; she was denied prenatal medical treatment and received prenatal vitamins only once.

It is clear he does not run a tight ship when it comes to the jails he is responsible for. The policy of shackling all prisoners who are hospitalized, even women in labor, is something other states manage to do without and still chaos has not ensued in the ten states that forbid it. I would think 'law and order' includes abiding by the Constitution's proscription against cruel and unusual punishments.
So it wasn't Clarke who did these things, but other people?
