On Friday, 12/14/2018, David Wang was booked into the Collin County Jail on multiple drug offenses by the
Allen Police Department. Wang made Collin County jailers aware of his medical conditions, which included
needing daily medications and appointments for dialysis appointments. Considerations were made to address
and accommodate Mr. Wang's medical conditions. On Sunday, 12/30/2018, in the early morning hours, Wang
advised jailers that he needed medical assistance and wanted to go to the hospital due to being weak and
short of breath. Wang advised that he was too weak to take his medication. Wang was transported to Baylor
