Carl Robert Talbot, 30, died March 21 after a struggle with jail staff when he refused to leave the jail’s shower area. The exact cause of death, according to officials, was sudden death due to a physical struggle, with restraint, as well as atherosclerotic and hypertensive cardiovascular disease and morbid obesity. The commissioner of the Department of Corrections and the state’s attorney’s office that has the case both issued statements after the medical examiner’s ruling.
