*(Via The Guardian) – A grand jury has indicted three people in the death of a 21-year-old college student whose body was found in restraints at a county jail in Savannah, Georgia.
Two of those indicted, Maxine Evans and Jason Kenny, are ex-jail employees at the Chatham County jail and Gregory Brown was a contract health worker.
Indictments returned Wednesday charge all three with involuntary manslaughter. Kenny is also charged with aggravated assault and cruelty to an inmate. Evans and Brown are also charged with public record fraud and Brown faces an additional charge of making a false statement. It’s unclear if they have attorneys.
Mathew Ajibade, 21, was found dead 1 January strapped to a restraining chair inside an isolation cell at the jail. The Savannah College of Art and Design student had been arrested after a fight with his girlfriend. The sheriff’s office has said Ajibade fought violently during booking and injured three deputies, one of whom suffered a concussion and a broken nose.
