Community members gathering in North Charleston, a vigil remembering inmates who have died while in custody at Al Cannon Detention Center want to see an elected community board as a watchdog group, more mental health access and better health care options @ABCNews4#chsnews
“We’re here to let the community know and let even those in power know that we haven’t forgotten about the victims of Al Cannon. We never will till they get justice,” @LCTakesAction organizer Matt Colburn said.
“And it also comes on the heels of community organizers holding a vigil at Charleston County’s jail on Monday to honor those who died while in custody and the life of D’Angelo Brown, who died as a result of medical neglect that was ruled a homicide” #chsnews
