OPEN RECORDS SUMMARY :

An unidentified man was found dead by suicide. We are unknown method on September 15, 2024 in the El Paso County jail. IncarcerNation does NOT list prison inmate populations, once convicted and in state or federal custody as these cases are impossible to document since many states do not report prison deaths publicly. We do list persons who die before, during or after arrest in county jail as they are considered part of the arrest process and its aftermath.
