Jamie Scott called home last night to the relief of her mother and family!
Following dialysis treatment at the prison last week Jamie was locked in a cell and was not checked on at all by anyone for a very long while. When an inmate stopped by Jamie's cell to speak to her, the inmate was alarmed that she was not moving and was completely unresponsive. It was because of this inmate yelling out for help that Jamie was found to be in shock and rushed by ambulance to the Central Mississippi Medical Facility, where she had been a patient during the entire time the prison refused to give her mother or legal supporters any information at all.
If not for this inmate's intervention Jamie may not have survived. Her heart rate and blood pressure were way off, as well as her magnesium levels. Her treatment had not been carried out properly and the doctor had to send back written instructions on how to care for her. The doctor alerted Jamie that there was a problem with the insertion of the temporary catheter in her neck and that it's placement could lead to infection, stating that the doctor who placed it needed to be contacted. As of last night Jamie was in the prison infirmary.
We are more concerned than ever about Jamie's medical care and are still pushing for mainstream media coverage to shine a bright light on her steady, perilous decline due to CUT-RATE medical care with the prison's rule of thumb being whatever is quickest, cheapest (whether or not it's actually the right treatment) or nothing at all!
Although Mrs. Rasco has a legal advisor, Atty Jaribu Hill, she is still in dire need of a criminal attorney. There are many issues that need to be addressed and we are actively seeking any information that would help her obtain a lawyer. We are extremely fortunate to have a fantastic and heavily experienced paralegal recently volunteer to work with us and who would be of great assistance to any attorney that would help to right the very egregious wrongs the Scott Sisters have suffered these many years.
Jamie Scott nor her sister should even be locked down in that prison in the first place, this case is galling beyond belief and calls into question every platitude this nation applies to itself when falsely lauding itself as a human rights champion! Please continue to make as many contacts as possible on the Scott Sisters' behalf, we are interested in all of your ideas and creativity to get this story out there!
