passed and why p.d. officials tell the family that livingston was pronounced dead at a nearby hospital but one witness and fellow inmate told the daily news that livingston had been dead for twenty minutes before the e.m.'s had even arrived the department which is now being sued by the family has declined requests to turn over key surveillance video and release the names of the officers who oversaw her care in a statement to our t.v. regarding the case a spokesman for the new york city law department said this involved a tragic matter but given the pending litigation we cannot comment further but livingston story is not exactly unique she represents just one of hundreds of deaths that take place every year in local jails across the country according to the most recent department of justice statistics available. in two thousand and eleven eight hundred eighty five inmates died while detained by local police departments deaths which have typically stemmed from a preexisting health condition it's a statisti

it seems like it's a little bit of a quins i think maybe people flooded with p.d. and saying hey what happened then is just like hey screw this i'm going to block it i think it's a personal bias decision and that's the problem is with this online encyclopedia it is ultimately up to the subjective personal bias of these admins and that's really i think what the editorial decision was and hopefully you know it will be reinstated actually heard from another one. admin who was like i was lobbying for you i'm going to try to get it back of. your brain i said audience sort of been involved in this at all or they've been lobbying we compete in there they're kind of just figuring out i mean i just figured out kind of how kind of a she this whole process really is there's a whole corporation called wiki p.r. that you can essentially you know pay to make your page verifiable and all this stuff so it really goes back to how it can be bought just like a democracy it's definitely gotten more difficult i think over the years are a lot of people i know i knew that personally had
