Say you get arrested for drugs.  Say you are pregnant.  Now–say you go into labor and see the ‘nurse’ — twice, even, but are put in the Cage for complaining too much.  Now what?  Well, you give birth in the cell, alone, and your child is born with a cord around her neck.  All of a sudden, a guard appears and helps you both to the hospital, where the baby is declared dead.  Now what?  You learn that the nurse’s license had expired… etc.  So you sue.  Won’t bring your daughter back, no.  But maybe, perhaps, the prison will be on notice that its health policies are wrong.  Perhaps there will be some justice, here.  Perhaps.
