He needed one hundred bucks for bail. Instead, 4 days later, he died in Denver jail.
Police harassment and restraining methods being blamed.
Marshall was killed for three reasons. He died while being black, while being mentally ill, and while being in jail. Had he not been homeless, he would never have been arrested for "trespassing" but many mentally ill people are now living out on the street.
From the article and link listed below:
Marshall was taken to the hospital after the incident, and eventually taken off life support on November 20. The coroner ruled his death a homicide. His history of mental illness and substance abuse, combined with heart and lung disease, were also suspected of contributing to his death. An autopsy report revealed his body was covered with bruises and abrasions. His family is expected to file a lawsuit.
Shadowproof compiled data on 30 similar deaths. Because of the varying jurisdictions at the local, state and federal level, and a lack of relevant public record-keeping or journalism on the topic, it was difficult to compile cases. Requests for updates or more information from government agencies were submitted, but questions about a number of cases went unanswered.
Of the 30 deaths found, 18 people died from a restraint-related incident within one week of their incarceration. Eight died within one day.
Sixteen of those who died suffered from mental illnesses, while eight had prior physical health issues or engaged in substance abuse.
