Prison surveillance video is shining a light on a controversial case in Oklahoma. Terral Ellis Jr. died at the Ottowa County Jail in Oct. 2015. The footage appears to show workers failing to respond to his repeated calls for help from just feet away.

"He would lay there and get sicker as the days go on, and the inmates were begging the jail staff to do something about it, and they wouldn't." https://t.co/mTGjFuGUPc

On Oct. 10, 2015, Ellis turned himself into the county jail on an outstanding warrant for an old DUI.

On Oct. 22, he was rolled out on a stretcher — cold and unresponsive from septic shock brought on by pneumonia.

A horrifying @kemettler exclusive.

He begged jail staff for medical attention. They ignored and mocked him. Then he died. https://t.co/1KxPWFeHh3
