The Hall County Sheriff’s Office has requested the assistance of the Georgia Bureau of Investigation following the weekend death of an inmate at the Hall County Jail.
Judy Taylor, 58, of Florida was found unresponsive in her cell shortly after 8 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 29.
“Jail personnel offered immediate medical attention and summoned Hall County Fire Rescue. However, Taylor was pronounced deceased at the scene,” says Hall County Sheriff’s Public Information Officer B.J. Williams.
According to Williams, Taylor had been in jail since November for failing to register as a sex offender.
Officials have not released any other details about Taylor’s death. Her body was transported to the GBI Crime Lab in Decatur for autopsy.
