Commentary
If the allegations here are true, all I can think about when reading about this incident is just how horrific it is that someone in state custody should have this happen to him. Beyond that, one person allegedly responsible for it was an official whose job it is to prevent this type of incident. It will be important going forward for authorities to ensure they handle these investigations delicately and make sure all proper steps are taken to get answers.
