Hello My name Dorothy I am Matthew McCain aunt, today the Durham Sheriff Andrew stated that my nephew Matthew refused treatment after a fight with another inmate .Also refused his medicines, so many lies , because Matthew would not refused his corrected medicines at anytime, this cannot be the true.
My heartfelt condolences goes out to you and your family. Please email me at War4Epilepsy@gmail.com. I would like to speak further with you on what happened to Mr. McCain. May God be with you and comfort you and your family.
McCain family would like to thanks,some many brave inmates in the jail ,for speaking truth about Matthew .God will bless you for this.And to your question on justice,yes not only for him,but for all the inmates whom human or civil rights has been deny. May God be with you all.

Is there any way I can help your Alliance? I do not have a family member incarcerated but still want to help!
I’m Michael Grace & I have a lot to tell you. I’m in Alamance County,where they treat the inmates in there far worse than they do in Durham County Jail. But they both are corrupt and crooked as hell !!! I know from experience. thing is,that here it’s not only done on that level that I spoke on about both of the jails,but here in Alamance County it’s on a racial level. And that’s what make it worse. It’s ran more like a concentration camp full of neglect and abuse behind those walls. I’d prefer Durham County Jail over this place any day !!! Not to mention how corrupt & crooked the court,sheriff & police are. Someone needs to really look into all of this ASAP !!! They also are over-populated with lots of people sleeping on cold concrete floors. That’s a hazard in many ways. My number is (336) 380-9771,but I’ve had to order a new phone so,please bear with me. Wish I’ve had a way to call you. I also need the ACLU to get involved in this too..
I complained about mistreatment of epileptics & diabetics BEFORE
Matthew McCain was killed by medical neglect.
Bastille Day (July 14) should be a day of protest wherever prisoners are mistreated. Too late this year (just now thought of it), but
PLAN FOR IT

I was in touch with Meg here when I was wrongfully incarcerated in DCJ twice and I would like to become a help to others incarcerated there. Please visit my blog as well. My signature name is Conscience Mind and my non-profit is BRUH. I have a huge challenge coming up that iwll definitely help many businesses looking to help build and grow the black communities nationwide. I have just posted my newsletter which I am also handing out all over Durham at this time. If there are inmates that would like to receive any let me know. I would also like to write to some inmates as well to help encourage their strength the same way that I was encouraged. Thanks Meg! CM
