I grew up in that city.
I still live in the same county.
The information about the arrested guy who died was in local news for a couple weeks.
An investigation by a third party concluded the cops did nothing wrong or illegal and the guy died of an overdose trying to ingest evidence.
The ingested drugs were smack, fentenyl, and coke. Toxicology showed 10x the lethal limits.
Gee, I have a lot of information for a case that was covered up!
