Default Re: Carol Gotbaum and personal responsibility

[ QUOTE ]
I agree with this but she was in police custody and the first definition of 'custody' is care and guardianship meaning I think she should've been watched more closely esp. given her agitated state.

Or she could have just calmed down, acted like a semi-reasonable adult, and not strangled herself. I don't think that every belligerent drunk is owed 24/7 police supervision when they're in a holding cell, on the off chance they might strangle themselves.
