Several staff members at Marcy Correctional Facility are under investigation, following the death of an incarcerated individual.
The State Department of Corrections and Community Supervision Commissioner says use of force by staff sent the incarcerated individual to the hospital last Monday. The person died a day later.
An immediate investigation by the Office of Special Investigations was ordered and State Police and the State Attorney General were both notified.
All staff members involved have been placed on administrative leave.
