Ryan Wilson, who had been a prisoner at Manhattan Detention Complex for about a month, was ordered to be transferred to another housing unit by Captain
Rebecca Hillman after he got into an argument with another inmate.
While waiting for the transfer, Wilson threatened to hang himself and tied the bedsheet into a noose. Another guard radioed Hilman for assistance, but she did not come immediately. After ten minutes, Wilson draped the noose over the light fixture, tied it around his neck, and jumped off the bed.
The other guard asked to open the cell door, but Hilman said to keep it closed, claiming that Wilson was just playing. After about a minute, she ordered the guard to open the door but wouldn t let him provide medical aid to Wilson.
