Longshoreman with schizophrenia sues Santa Rita Jail after attempted suicide

A man who suffers from schizophrenia is suing Santa Rita Jail saying that he wouldn't have tried to die by suicide if he had received the proper medication. Julian Martinez, a former longshoreman and father of three who also suffers from bipolar disorder and addiction, filed a federal suit against Alameda County, Wellpath – the company that provides medical care at the jail – and the city of Fremont, as officers are accused of not properly notifying the jail of his condition.
