Let's say i have been jailed for an overnight offense and i have a pre exsisting medical condition. I am going to use sleep apnea as my condition. How is this situation handled since sleep apnea can cause death if i do not use my cpap machine.Im sure i can not use my cpap in the jail. Possible transfer to hospital with guards? If i die while in jail could they be held liable for my death if i do not get my machine.
