Read
in Bill Nangle's article in The Times the camera that was supposed to monitor
the drunk tank that housed Luis Wilson who was brought in for OWI did not work.
( This was The Gibbs in me)."Do we know if there were other instances when
the camera was out of order? Or did it go out that night around 9 p.m.? Did
somebody from the electrical company that services the police station come out
to fix that camera?
Continues: Case File #96-6053. Booking Officer M. Smith #374 Booking Off.
Sgt. M. Wilder #249 Supervisor Approving. Do they know how long the camera was
not working? Could it have been turned off that night? What was the biggest red
flag in this scenario that you can remember? The family said that Luis Wilson
was drunk inside lock up at 9 pm & died 2 hours later. Did not get a call
from Poe-Poe till the morning. They could not get a look at the police report, etc.
This is what Street was looking to do. TBC.
