Jail leaves woman ‘black and blue’

The Advocate: The family of a homeless, mentally ill woman said Thursday the woman is in “bad shape” after she remained locked up in Parish Prison for six months because of a clerical error made by the East Baton Rouge Parish District Attorney’s Office.
“We have been told by other family members who have seen her that she’s black and blue,” Libby Poche said, referring to her sister-in-law Melissa Poche.
