SNOHOMISH COUNTY, Wash. — Video obtained by KIRO 7 through a public records request shows a Snohomish County Jail inmate questioning the breakfast he was fed that ultimately killed him.
Michael Saffioti, 22, was no career criminal. He had turned himself in because of an outstanding misdemeanor warrant for marijuana possession.
The video comes from jail module E-4 on the morning of July 3, 2012. Around 5:46, a group of inmates arrived to serve breakfast and men began lining up. While others sat to eat, the camera first captured Saffioti at the guard’s desk, holding his tray. Saffioti suffered from extreme dairy allergies and took regular pills to protect himself.
