Give now and help us raise $12,000 by June 7.A year ago this month, while being held in Larimer County Jail, Harmon, 43, suffered a mental health crisis that caused suicidal thoughts and desires — and his cell contained everything he needed to complete the act.
The suit accuses the defendants of"subjective and objective deliberate indifference" to Harmon's plight, and says that"rather than urgently intervening, they instead played a deadly Russian roulette-like jail game of fakery and gambled with the meaning of Ryan Harmon's state of mind until he hung himself.
These issues were exacerbated on May 21, when Harmon and his cellmate, Nicholas Ivarson, were placed on quarantine status after Ivarson exhibited symptoms associated with COVID.
Ivarson also heard one deputy tell Harmon"that if he did not stop making threats about ending his life, they were going to punish him by moving him to someplace upstairs where he did not want to be," the complaint states.Nevertheless, on May 24, Harmon submitted a communiqué to jail personnel known as a kite, in which he wrote:"I was told 3 days in would be here for covid I'm negative please bring me back to gp" — the general population of the jail.
