Spokane County Sheriff’s major crimes detectives will seek criminal charges against an inmate they say provided a legend drug to a second inmate who used them to commit suicide last fall.
In his affidavit requesting criminal charges, detectives wrote that given the totality of the evidence, probable cause exists to charge Ronald F. Edwards with one count of delivery of a legend drug and one count of second-degree manslaughter.
On Sept. 20, Corrections Deputy Janice Nuxoll-Zollars found inmate Christopher Devlin dead in his cell.
