Man Left in Solitary Confinement for 2 Horrific Years … for Suspected DUI (VIDEO)
” After Steven’s arrest on suspicion of DUI and driving a stolen car, he was placed in solitary confinement because officers felt he might be “suicidal.”
There, he was essentially forgotten about by the legal system. He was given no health care. His toenails grew so long they curled around his feet. He developed bed sores. A fungus grew on his skin after being denied showers. He lost a ton of weight. His hair grew long and shaggy — he looks like he just got off a desert island. He descended into madness. And his dental problems grew so severe that he was forced to pull out one of his rotting teeth by himself.”
