7:42Now PlayingMichael Diaz Garcia was a prisoner who needed dental care. The prison took him to a local dentist, where he overpowered his guard, took his gun, and ran off. He entered a nearby home, killed Mario Martinez, and stole a car. He later died in the ensuing chase.
Maria Mercedes Cancino sues on behalf of her late husband, arguing both negligence and state created danger. She argues that since the state was responsible for the guarding of the prisoner, the government should likewise be responsible for the danger they cost.
In today's legal analysis, we discuss the state created danger doctrine, and whether the government can be held to account for these losses.
