Hello everyone,

I hope you’re all doing well and looking forward to the weekend! Over the next week, I’ll be submitting a Texas Public Information Act request to obtain the results of my bloodwork from the night of my incarceration. Once I have those results, I’ll be undergoing a second blood test to compare the findings.

My plan is to compile each document and have them individually notarized, creating an indisputable record of evidence. I’m doing this not only to prove my innocence to those who doubt my experience but also to shed light on the very real risks associated with the denial of prescribed medications from a licensed psychologist. This is an issue that has affected others, and I believe it’s time we bring attention to the harm this can cause.

Here are a few examples:

 • Anonymous source: One individual, much like myself, was arrested and deprived of necessary medication while in jail. Unlike my experience, however, this person had no advocates to speak on their behalf. As a result, they endured nearly two weeks of incarceration without their medication, leading to a significant deterioration in their health. Fortunately, this person is still alive, as far as I know.

 • Anonymous source: Another case involved a woman carrying her prescribed medications in an unsecured container. She was stopped by Georgetown police, arrested, and charged with offenses similar to DWI or drug possession. Thankfully, she had a strong attorney who was able to verify her prescription, ultimately leading to her release and the charges being dropped.

 • Joshua McNatt: In 2021, Joshua McNatt, who had a history of mental health issues, was jailed and denied access to his medication. His mental health spiraled as a result, and despite being on suicide watch, he attempted to take his own life in jail. He was released shortly after, only to die by suicide days later. Following an investigation, Williamson County reached a $1.25 million wrongful death settlement with his family.

 • Timothy Acosta: Timothy Acosta, whose experience parallels my own in some ways, reported being denied both his PTSD medication and a CPAP machine necessary for his health after his arrest. He later filed a lawsuit, highlighting ongoing issues with neglect and inadequate medical care within the jail.

 • Jimmie Fielder: This case dates back to 1976 and shows the long-standing issues in the Williamson County Jail. Fielder, detained for reasons that remain unclear, relied on blood pressure medication and treatment for a viral infection. His condition worsened, yet staff dismissed his suffering as “faking.” Tragically, Fielder was found dead in his cell soon after. A Williamson County jury ultimately ruled that the staff’s actions constituted cruel and unusual punishment.

It’s been difficult hearing people dismiss my story as untrue, and I’m determined to show the truth. These cases show that this isn’t just a one-time incident but an ongoing problem. If you could, please consider sharing the petition with your friends and family. We’re close to reaching one hundred signatures, and I’m incredibly proud of how far we’ve come.

Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for your support and belief in this cause. It means everything to me.

With gratitude,

John Geiger
