However, his Mother tracked down his body and stopped it right before it occurred. The DOJ failed to report the death in a timely manner but did it none the less. Now his family has his body and still cant burry him because the Prison has failed to cover up the murder and is trying to find a way to find a cause of death. However, they tried to claim he had a drug overdose as he died cuffed drowning in his own body fluids and brutally beaten. They gave him even though he was reported dead the very next morning the gave him numerous Narcan's and epy pins when you only need one for a overdose but in order to inject one he would have to have signs of life which he did not. Now they are under investigation and is refusing to provide a death certificate so he can be properly buried. May we all find justice for the numerous African Americans that were injured and Erin Brown and his family! This is a all white prison facility and a very dangerous one as well. All's you have to take a look at is the private new autopsy we have now. May GOD PROVIDE JUSTICE to the wickedness in high places! (Ephesians6:12) '' because we have a struggle, not against blood and flesh, but against the governments, against the authorities, against the world rulers of the darkness, against the wicked spirt forces in the heavenly places...''

I recently graduated from the Citizen's Academy put on by the Carson City Sherriff's Office. We…read moreme6t every Wednesday evening from 6-9 PM for 10 weeks. This very informative Academy offered me the opportunity to learn about the various services offered and to observe a large array of situations that Officers encountered daily. Here's some of the services that I had the privilege to learn more: - Detention Center Tour (Learned the difference between Jail and Prison) - Coroner's Office - Detectives Division - Lab & Vault Units - SWAT - Search and Rescue (Volunteer) - AERO Squadron (Volunteer) - Mental Health (MOST) - Special Enforcement - Gangs Unit - Dispatch Center - School Resource Officer (SRO) - Volunteer Organization (VIPS) - Traffic - K-9 Unit - Patrol - Active Shooter/Post IHOP Education I very much appreciated the time that Sherriff Ken Furlong shared with us at the beginning of each session, and professional knowledge that his officers and staff shared with us during all their presentations. It was eye opening at times to realize how much goes on in greater Carson City and how big (Lake to Desert) this Country really is. Special thanks and gratitude to Colleen Schiller for coordinating all of this. My Wife Gayle used to run the Citizen Academy of the City of Walnut Creek and believe me, putting on programs like this are a LOT of much appreciated work. Thank You. Notes: 1. I hope that I'm never on the "other side" of any of these fine officers. I do try to convince my Wife that I'm a "Bad Boy", but she's not buying it. 2. Douglas County (where I live in Genoa) has a similar Citizen's Academy program. Please contact their Sherriff's Office for additional details. 3. The Carson City Sheriff's Office does a pretty good job communicating various crime issues and requesting information. I read about things like this daily via my newspaper subscription through the Nevada Appeal and the Record Currier. Douglas, Lyon, and Story Counties too. 4. Citizen's Academy presentations may or may not sometimes be biased towards the positive. I personally thought I received balanced presentations and was pleased that the officers seemed to want to be there, were straightforward about their duties, and were eager to answer questions. 5. If I were to suggest any improvements, maybe bring some Fire Department presentations into the mix would have rounded out my "uniformed services" knowledge. 6. Another goal of this Citizen's Academy is to recruit volunteers for various programs. There's some paperwork involved (which I have in hand), and I'm sure that when I do raise my hand, any volunteer efforts on my part will be well appreciated.

The officers there in the Jail were very professional, kind and informative- they all were…read moreinterested in meeting the needs of our family and helpful to make the process much easier. From a somewhat difficult circumstance, they made certain that I was informed, although they were not there for " my protection" per se, I felt that I was treated well and with a great deal of respect. They extend courtesy, professionalism, and work diligently to preserve the dignity of the in- custody individuals, and treat them with a great deal of respect as well. They are challenged daily I am certain, but continue to do their difficult jobs to meet the needs of our community very well. The Deputies in the jail are super- all of them. Thank you for all that you do. Of the names I recall, I would like to personally thank Deputy Carter, Deputy Oropeza, Deputy Garcia, and I am certain there were many more. From my family to you all- a warm and heartfelt thank you to you all!! Katherine

Guest services was very clean. The front desk staff was very attentive and offered to store my personal belongings. Upon arrival you will be offered a keepsake photo for your Instagram and given slippers for your stay. Room was not overly decorated. Unfortunately, there was no turn down service and the mattresses were not very comfortable. Complimentary meals were served three times a day. The food was like nothing I've never experienced. Portions could have been larger. Beverage service was below average. Not a large selection. There is limited cell service and no access to the internet. A real off the grid experience. It's a wonderful place to have time alone to reboot and really get to know yourself again. They have a great incentive plan for guests staying more then one night. You receive a significant reduction in your final lodging invoice. Overall, my stay was very eye opening. I regret to say I will not make reservations again.
