The NYPD is investigating the death of 32-year-old Soso Ramishvili, who was found unresponsive in the Brooklyn Criminal Court after three days in custody. Allegations from the Legal Aid Society and Brooklyn Defenders claim that he was denied necessary medical care despite pleas from legal representatives. Initially arrested on March 18 for low-level crimes, multiple court hearings were delayed leading to his untimely death on March 21. The organizations are demanding a thorough investigation into his treatment and the circumstances surrounding his death.
Legal Aid Society and Brooklyn Defenders alleged that Ramishvili had been allowed to languish in pain in custody for three days and was deprived of medical care despite repeated pleas.
His body was transferred to the Medical Examiner's office for an autopsy to determine the cause of death.
