Preliminary ME Report On Collin County Inmate’s Death

A preliminary report from the Collin County Medical Examiner says Marvin Scott III died from a combination of schizophrenia and stress from struggling with officers in the Collin County Jail last month. They ruled the death a homicide. The announcement was made on the same day that Scott’s family was allowed to review security videos of what happened. The father of the victim, Marvin Scott II, was shaken. They fired seven jailers, but a civil service board ordered one reinstated. Criminal charges over the death are under consideration.
