July 22, 2019 – Cox said she believed he overdosed while in the holding cell. She wanted to know how it happened — not just for him, but for others in police custody who are addicted to drugs.
“How do you keep them safe? You make sure you’re watching the cameras. You make sure you’re going by, so in case they’re sleeping and their body looks lifeless. . . ,” she said before trailing off. “That’s what you do to make sure you keep people alive. Because that’s what our tax dollars pay you to do, to protect and serve.”
Sergeant Detective John Boyle, a Boston Police Department spokesman, said the department’s internal affairs and homicide units are investigating the July 14 death. He declined to say how long the man had been in the holding cell when he was found unconscious, citing the ongoing investigation.
