CBSN
A nurse at a county jail in California was charged with involuntary manslaughter Thursday after being accused of walking away from a 24-year-old inmate who collapsed in front of her on a cell floor before she died.
Danalee Pascua faces up to four years in prison if convicted of the charge stemming from the November 11, 2019, death of Elisa Serna at the Las Colinas Detention Facility in the San Diego suburb of Santee, the San Diego County District Attorney's Office said.
The day before she died, Serna was moved into the jail's medical observation unit after reporting she felt dizzy and nauseous.
