  Disabled Alabama Department of Corrections Inmate In Need of Urgent Care

I am writing to express urgency regarding the need to provide AL DOC disabled inmate with quality healthcare.

 Mr. Kastellio Demarcus Vaughan – AIS#: 00263279 is gravely ill and in need of quality healthcare in a hospital outside of the Alabama Department of Corrections. Mr. Vaughn is a disabled inmate.  He cannot walk, he’s using a wheelchair, and is unable to carry out activities of daily living.  He currently wears diapers as undergarments and is afraid of losing his legs and his life. He is emaciated and malnourished. His sister, Kassie Vaughan has also stated he vomited waste.

Kastellio told Ms. Kassie Vaughan that his feet are the size of footballs, and the back of his legs and the top of his feet are hard and discolored. The hole in his chest is still there, and he thinks it is infected.

Alabama Department of Corrections states Mr. Vaughan signed a waiver to have his medical records released. The question is, was he competent to sign the waiver, if he indeed signed it, and as sick as he is, did he know what he was signing?

Alabama Department of Corrections also said that, “… Vaughan was admitted to Jackson Hospital in Montgomery on August 5 for a bowel obstruction. He then underwent surgery. Following the surgery, AL DOC states Vaughan opted to be discharged Against Medical Advice on August 10.” Alabama News Network Article

If Mr. Vaughan was given quality medical care, certainly he was given prescribed pain medication. If so, Mr. Vaughan was not able to make a competent discharge decision under the influence of prescribed painkillers.

Mr. Vaughan’s Civil Rights are being violated as a disabled human being. He was movedhoused at Staton Correctional Facility in Elmore County, Alabama. Please do not allow him to waste away.
