Suit blames Baton Rouge jail conditions for prisoner's death

BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) - Poor medical care and dangerous conditions at a Louisiana jail led to the death of a prisoner who hanged himself in his cell last year, a federal lawsuit says.

Relatives of Lamar Alexander Johnson sued East Baton Rouge Parish and its sheriff on Thursday, blaming the 27-year-old's death on a "culture of violence and indifference to prisoner welfare" at the parish jail.
