Ghosts of Jan Brewer: Margaret Alvarado, 47.

Condolences to Margaret's family. I received word from Perryville tonight that she was a diabetic, and had asked for medical attention shortly before she died because she wasn't feeling well. She was reportedly sent back to her cell without even having her glucose levels checked. 

If anyone knows anything more about Margaret's death or her life and her loves, or if you are family and want help contacting a good wrongful death attorney (the only way to get to the truth about how she died),  please reach me at:
