Bookmark and Share
An inmate in the Martinez Detention Facility is in intensive care tonight after apparently attempting suicide, a sheriff's spokesman said.

The 21-year-old Pleasanton resident was found unresponsive in his cell at 2:54 p.m., sheriff's spokesman Jimmy Lee said.

He was taken to Contra Costa Regional Medical Center and was in intensive care Thursday night.

Lee did not disclose the name of the inmate or why he was in jail.

Big deal...What ever he did it appears he's guilty and can not live with his wrong doings.

Let him choose his Destiny with Dignity.

Plus it will save the taxpayers a lot of money. I'm sure all you naive people know that while this criminal is in the hospital he will be guarded by two officer's 24/7 until he returns to his cell.
