This is unbelievable! Family members have hired an attorney after a homeless relative seeking treatment for a sprained ankle refused to leave a St. Louis hospital, was arrested for trespassing and then died in a jail cell.

An autopsy revealed blood clots killed 29 year old Anna Brown when they traveled from her legs to her lungs. No lawsuit has been filed, but Brown’s mother, Dorothy Davis, wants answers.

“If the police killed my daughter, I want to know,” she said. “If the hospital is at fault, I want to know. I want to be able to tell her children why their mother isn’t here.”

In the week before her daughter’s death last September she went to three hospitals complaining of leg pain after spraining her ankle.

Brown, who had lost custody of two children, refused to leave the third hospital, St. Mary’s Health Center. She yelled from a wheelchair at security personnel and Richmond Heights police officers that her legs hurt so badly she couldn’t stand. She was arrested for trespassing and wheeled out in handcuffs after a doctor said she was healthy enough to be locked up.

 She told officers she couldn’t get out of the police car, so they dragged her by her arms into the station. They left her lying on the concrete floor of a jail cell. Just 15 minutes later, a jail worker found her cold to the touch.

Although officers suspected Brown was using drugs, autopsy results showed she had NO DRUGS in her system. St. Mary’s officials say they did all they were supposed to do for Brown. “Our records show that, in this case, everything that should have been done medically was done properly. We found nothing that would have changed this tragic outcome,” according to a statement. SMDH!

Acting Police Chief Maj. Roy Wright said his officers had no way of knowing Brown’s dire condition. “A lot of times people don’t want to stay in jail and will claim to be sick,” he said. “We depend on medical officials to tell us they’re OK.”
