Summary:
On 7/18/2024 Landon Davis was brought down to the infirmary with complaints of constipation for the past 5
days. Davis was housed in the infirmary for observation while protocols were followed for constipation. On
7/19/2024 at approximately 0346, Jailer Margaret Watkins was cleaning the window of Davis's cell. She was
speaking to the other inmate in the cell when she couldn't see Davis moving. She went into the cell to check
on Davis. He didn't appear to be breathing and he was unresponsive. Blood also seemed to be coming from
his mouth. Medical Emergency was called and life-saving measures began. At the time only medical staff
available were the med techs. They grabbed the AED and began assessing Davis until other medical staff
arrived. 0349 CPR was started and 911 was called. At approximately 0407am, EMS arrived and took over
CPR and continued life saving measures. At approximately 0430am, EMS called the hospital, and all
life-saving measures were stopped and the time of death was given. The cell was secured, Justice of Peace,
and Texas Rangers were called. JP Coleman pronounced the time of death to be 0610am.
