New report questions psychiatric care of inmate found dead at Westchester prison

A report by the state Corrections Commission has raised concerns about the death of Luis Ramos, a Westchester County Jail inmate who was found dead in his cell last March.

The report, obtained by News 12, concludes that Ramos committed suicide.

Ramos, 29, was charged with stabbing a mother and her daughter to death in Yonkers. The report also said Ramos should have received continued treatment after losing access to mental health care and that he went undetected for more than two hours after his death.

The Westchester County Department of Corrections said in a statement that a joint investigation found no violations of policy by staff.
