ASHLEY SMITH INQUEST-NECK LIGATURES ARE DANGEROUS

So over five years after her death, the seemingly obvious has been explained by a medical doctor at the Ashley Smith ongoing inquest. Any ligature around the neck is dangerous. The fact that staff removed 50-70 ligatures in the preceeeding three months is horrific. All of this leads me to my next question. HOW MANY WARDENS DOES IT TAKE TO SCREW IN A LIGHTBULB? This is the elephant in the room. "Senior management" ordered guards upon threat of discipline and or criminal charges not to go into Ashley Smith's room to intervene until she had stopped breathing. Criminal negligence charges here anyone!!!
Apparently laying criminal charges against employees asap isn't a problem for our police and Crown. Doing the same against idiots with credentials, degrees or some sort of authority hasn't happened yet. WHY NOT?

I've long understood the deference accorded to "bosses" in almost any setting. Clearly in this setting, even with a union present to protect workers' rights; the Correctional Service management felt they could scapegoat employees who had specifically and repeatedly asked for assistance and direction from management in dealing with Ashley Smith. Instead they received criminally negligent orders which put a troubled inmate's life in jeopardy. Today's Waterloo Region Record has this story "Smith inquest told any ligature posed a danger". Yesterday's Record attempted to give a possible reason for the management directives to stay out of Ms. Smith's cell. Allegedly it was "...aimed to lower the number of reports the prison generated.". Are you seriously kidding me? Bureaucracy run amok. Lessen the paperwork first, use common sense second. Is this what Canadians can expect from fellow citizens promoted to positions of authority; allegedly serving the public interests? These decisions should have been common sense or even medical decisions. They should not have been decisions based on bureaucratic paperwork.
