Medical Negligence and another Prisoner Death

Here's one example of a female officer with the last name of Paramore. A guy goes up to the front of the dorm and pushes the intercom to the officers station. His last name is Welch and he's handicapped (having one leg) and in a wheelchair. The officer asks what he wants and he says he can't breath. After getting out of the dormitory another inmate asked CO Paramore if he should push him in his wheelchair to medical. She states: "No, he can push himself." He makes it to medical (with some assistance) and a nurse asks him "what's your problem?" Well, if he could've answered he would've said, "Who? Me? My problem is: I'm dead." Yes, he died. Ms. Paramore doesn't work in our dormitory anymore - but she's still working and in another housing unit.

And by the way, I had to go to confinement and now I know what Pelican Bay torture is like. The officers there went by clicking, beeping, and closing doors there every 25-30 minutes! So, I feel for y'all in Pelican Bay.
