A 57-year-old inmate's death has been ruled a homicide due to medical neglect and poor living conditions. The inmate, Scott Worthy, died from sepsis caused by streptococcus pyogenes. He was taken to a hospital in late August 2025 and died on September 6, 2025. The medical examiner's office found that Worthy's physical condition deteriorated significantly while he was confined, leaving him unable to perform daily activities without assistance.
Further details about the case are available from the medical examiner's office. The office's determination is based on evidence of Worthy's decline in health while in custody.
