KY: Report: Immigrant who died in jail hanged herself
Report: Immigrant who died in jail hanged herself
(Published September 13, 200
FRANKFORT, Ky. — A preliminary autopsy report says a Salvadoran immigrant died of asphyxia from hanging while in police custody.
The state medical examiner's report, obtained by the Lexington Herald-Leader, says 44-year-old Ana Romero hanged herself by the neck with a sheet in the Franklin County jail in Frankfort. She was awaiting deportation.
A final autopsy report is pending other information, including a toxicology report.
Jail personnel took Romero to a hospital late Aug. 21. The report says she was pronounced dead the next day.
State police arrested Romero on Jan. 14 after they said she gave immigration officials a false identification card.
