State settles $3.25 million lawsuit over Timothy Souders death in prison

State settles $3.25 million lawsuit over Timothy Souders death in prison
"A $3.25 million lawsuit settlement in no way makes up for the death of her son in a Michigan prison, Theresa Vaughn said, nor will it stop her campaign to improve prison conditions.
Timothy Souders, 21, died of dehydration and heat exhaustion after nearly four days shackled to a cement slab in a Jackson prison during an August 2006 heat wave,"

I wonder if anyone was fired or disciplined over this outrage.
I suspect not.
