New York Prison Suicide Attorneys
Being arrested or convicted of a crime is often a traumatic and emotional event that can often trigger thoughts of suicide. For this reason, corrections, police and other law enforcement officials have been charged with a duty to protect those in their care from taking their own lives. This includes providing timely psychological evaluations and placing inmates on suicide watches. Most, if not all, jail and prison suicides can be prevented.
