This issue does affect all of us, this person was in custody.
The authorities had an obligation to ensure the wellbeing of this person and they failed that duty, this needs to be investigated and protocols need to be put in place to prevent this happening again.
A friend of mine died years ago due to a loophole in a certain law, his family contacted their council member and the law was amended to prevent this type of accidental death across Australia.
For one guy, 1 out of 23 million at the the time and they passed a law. So I ask how is this different to you?

I believe there is plenty of news about large issues. There is no lack of information that prevents humanity from doing better, its a lack of will to act and infinite greed. Reporting even more about the same issues that affect a lot of people wont change that in the slightest.

I think it absolutely will. The efforts of hank green and his team in regards to tuberculosis is a great example of how hammering the same point again and again can have significant effects.

And literally everything else in human history is a great example of why it doesnt work. Everyone knows about the Israeli genocide, nothing happens despite that. In the end getting the information out is an important baseline, but to actually do anything about those situations you need political power.
