Im listening to Laura Ingraham. SHe talked with another talk show host who got kicked out of the MS prison holding one of those border guards sent there wrongfully. (Ramos and Campeon. Sent for shooting a drug runner in the BUTT!!) They mentioned one of them has turrets syndrom and is NOT getting his medications. Why is that??

I would always be somewhat skeptical of these sort of claims. Generally you are only getting one side of the story - and when there is an obvious bias (as in this case) it is wise to be skeptical.

I see things like this happen everyday. If a person comes to a prison needing medication they first have to see a doctor. If they do happen to get seen and the doctor determines that their situation is not an emergency, they won't get any medication for a few days. It is very common where I work. It needs to change but like the posts above indicate, we're not medical staff, we basically just warehouse people.

A prison is not a hospital. All meds are taken away from the prisoners upon entering. They need to go to a doctor to get any meds. CO's are not qualified to hand out medication, and the prisoners can't be trusted with keeping their own meds.
I arrested a woman with a heart condition, and had to take her to the hospital to take a heart pill before she could be processed.

Please show some sort of documentation of this. Otherwise it's just yet another baseless accusation.
