Two former corrections officers in Alabama have agreed to plead guilty to criminal charges in the death of a mentally ill inmate. Heather Lasha Craig and Bailey Clark Ganey agreed to the plea deals separately. Court documents say the incarcerated man, Tony Mitchell, died of hypothermia and sepsis after being locked up at Walker County Jail in 2023.

Both Craig and Ganey were correctional officers at the Walker County Jail when Tony Mitchell, 33, died from hypothermia and sepsis after being kept in a cold, concrete cell, without immediate access to a toilet, running water or bedding.Mitchell was arrested Jan. 12 after a family member noticed he appeared to be experiencing a mental health crisis and asked emergency responders to check on him.
Craig had observed that Mitchell’s condition “would ultimately result in serious harm or even death” without medical intervention, according to her plea deal. She did not raise her concerns because she did not want to be labeled a “snitch” or suffer retaliation, the court document said.
