The widow of a Henrico County jail inmate is claiming in a $10 million wrongful death suit that Henrico Sheriff Michael Wade and other jail officials covered up details surrounding her husband’s death from a drug overdose.
The 26-page suit filed May 1 alleges a broad series of shortcomings within jail security operations that she claims allowed a food service employee to bring a highly dangerous narcotic into Henrico Jail West and provide the drug to inmate Willie Wingfield Scott. Scott was serving a year and two months for violating a protective order.
