Investigation Reveals Failure in Medical Care at Rikers Island Leading to Woman's Death

Credited from: APNEWS

  • The Board of Corrections reported that correction officers blocked medical staff from treating 23-year-old Charizma Jones multiple times.
  • Jones was suffering from a possible case of scarlet fever when she was isolated for treatment but faced delays in care.
  • After days without proper medical intervention, she was later hospitalized with acute liver damage and died from multiorgan failure.
  • Her family’s attorney criticized the officers for their actions as illegal and contributing to a preventable death.
  • The case has spurred ongoing investigations and highlighted systemic issues in the jail’s medical treatment practices.
