Summary:
On 07-01-16 around 4:40 am LVN Brittany Johnson went to the medical observation cell of the Bi-State Jail to
check on Texarkana Arkansas Police Department Inmate Morgan Angerbauer. LVN Johnson noted that
Angerbauer appeared to be sleeping and her breathing was normal. She left to retrieve an Accucheck
machine and returned to the medical observation cell a short time later. LVN Johnson attempted several
times to get a reading with the Accucheck machine, but kept getting an error message. She then left to get
glutose to give Angerbauer. When LVN Johnson returned she was unable to get Angerbauer to swallow the
glutose on her own, she helped her. Around 04:55 am Angerbauer began to aspirate. LVN Johnson rolled
Angerbauer on her side and noticed her bite through her tongue. She checked Angerbauer for a pulse, but
could not find one. 911 was called and an AED machine was hooked up to Angerbauer. CPR was performed
on Angerbauer until ambulance personnel arrived. They hooked an EKG machine to Angerbauer and
discovered the life saving measures taken had been unsuccessful. The Texarkana Arkansas Police
Department conducted the investigation into Angerbauer’s death since she was in their custody.
Angerbauer was sent off to Little Rock, Arkansas for an autopsy. The results of this autopsy show
Angerbauer’s manner of death as natural and her cause of death as diabetic ketoacidosis.
