Episode Details

Two deaths in custody within days at Mecklenburg County’s detention center have shaken the community — 33-year-old Domonique Chrisholm died Wednesday night after a medical emergency, and just days earlier, 59-year-old Todd Williams also passed away in his cell. Both men had been held for only a short time, and the State Bureau of Investigation is now probing both incidents. Sheriff Garry McFadden expressed condolences to the families, acknowledging the facility’s challenges: overcrowding, complex health needs, and substance abuse issues — while reaffirming his office’s commitment to care, transparency, and safety, even as they grapple with preventable tragedies.
