This document outlines the chronological timeline leading up to the discovery of the medical emergency, the immediate response of staff, and the advanced life-saving measures performed. Chronological Timeline of Events • 10:56 Hours - Initial Welfare Check Officer Kolby Fisher performed a routine welfare check on Inmate Anthony Glenn Morgan in Detox-B.

Dispatch was simultaneously notified to expedite emergency medical services (EMS) to the scene. • Automated External Defibrillator (AED) Deployment: While Deputy Tracy Sepulvado performed continuous chest compressions, facility Southern Health Partners contracted medical staff Kiyah Russell applied the AED pads to Inmate Anthony Glenn Morgan. The AED performed an automated rhythm analysis and advised "no shock indicated; continue CPR." • Rotational Physical Exertion (Continuous Resuscitation): Recognizing the physical toll of high-quality CPR, staff executed a seamless physical rotation to maintain chest compression efficacy without interruption: 1. Deputy Tracy Sepulvado performed initial compressions until experiencing physical fatigue. 2. Sergeant Christy Alford immediately stepped in to take over chest compressions. 3. Staff Sergeant Jacob Pearson subsequently relieved Sergeant Alford, maintaining uninterrupted CPR until EMS arrival.
