At approximately 2309 hours, I was conducting my rounds and watches. While I was conducting my rounds on B 8, I glanced over to the opposite run (DBL) and observed Inmate Dupe, Patrick SO# 16-164334 hanging from the bunk handle in his cell (DBL), with his sheet wrapped around his neck. I immediately called for medical back via my hand held radio and also called for Officer Here, Michael #14319 and Officer Cobb, Colton #14301 to meet me at Mr. Dupe's cell. We entered Mr. Dupe's cell and found that he was unresponsive. I cut Mr. Dupe's down from the bunk handle. Officer Here and I then laid Mr. Dupe's down on the cell floor, at which time, Officer Here started CPR procedures on Mr. Dupe's. At approximately 2314 hours, Medical Officer Hispid, Ryan #13769, Medical Officer Howe's, Michelle #14891, Officer Johnson, Cody #14098, Deputy Hunt, Shawn #14314, Officer Gibson, Steven #14567, Officer Kayla, Daniel #14638 and Lieutenant Harder, Jason #5518 arrived on the floor.

Custodial Death Report :: Page 6 of 7 --- PAGE BREAK --- ***Report from Medical Officer Hipskind on scene*** On Sunday May 12th, 2019 at approximately 2313hrs, I, Medical Officer Joseph Hipskind #13769 was working in the medical department of the Williamson County Jail when I received a medical back-up call to the 2nd floor of the South Jail for an inmate who was later identified as Dupre, Patrick SO#16-164334. I immediately responded with the stretcher and medical equipment and was met at the elevator by Medical Officer Michelle Howes #14891 and responding booking officers. While in the elevator we received a radio transmission that indicated the call was for a hanging in B8L-03. Upon arrival I grabbed the airway bag and responded to the cell as MO Howes brought the AED behind me. Upon arrival at the cell Officers D. Ivy #13798 and C. Cobb #14301 were at the doorway of the cell, and Officer M. Herrera was standing in the cell and indicated that CPR was needed. As I entered the cell my initial observation was that the patient was presenting a pale and cyanotic appearance with an approximately 1 ligature mark on his neck, with a cut length of knotted sheet that was located under his neck. I immediately checked for a carotid pulse and breathing and confirmed that he was pulseless and apneic. I then called for EMS response for CPR in progress and began performing chest compressions at 2315hrs. Within about 30 seconds I swapped positions with MO Howes who assumed chest compressions while I applied the AED pads to the patient. Upon the (1st) initial AED analysis it indicated no shock advised, continue CPR . As MO Howes resumed compressions I placed an oropharyngeal airway and began BVM ventilations with O2 at 25LPM. MO Howes then recommended the use of an I-gel airway to further secure the patient s airway. We then asked the shift officers to assist with compressions so MO Howes could retrieve the I-gel. Upon the next (2nd) AED rhythm check which indicated no shock advised , Officer D. Kala #14638 swapped with MO Howes and assumed compressions, as she prepared the I-gel. The AED then performed a third rhythm check as MO Howes swapped positions with me on the airway and I relieved CO Kala on chest compressions. No shock was advised, MO House then placed the I-gel as I resumed compressions. Upon the 4th AED rhythm check MO Howes thought she saw pulse movement on the inmate s chest, at this time I checked for a radial pulse but no peripheral pulse was present. I then continued compressions for approximately 15 seconds before I felt a pulse in the inmate s chest, at this time I confirmed his pulse and found that a bounding radial pulse was present. The inmate then began to experience agonal respirations as we continued BVM respirations. I placed a finger pulse ox which read HR: 134bpm, SPO2: 99%. GFD EMS then arrived on scene at 2321hrs. GFD Paramedics then placed an endotracheal tube and an IO access. MO Howes continued BVM respirations as I assisted with placement of the ET tube tamer and C-collar, before log-rolling the patient on to a back board. The inmate was then moved to GFD s stretcher and patient care was fully transferred. I then escorted EMS to the old sally port and out their ambulance. EMS then obtained a set of vitals which were recorded as BP: 143/98, HR: 117bpm, SPO2: 99%. EMS then transported the inmate to Seton Williamson County ER at 2345hrs.
