Attorneys for Harris County and its sheriff argue they weren’t responsible for outsourced jail inmate’s death

The family of Jaleen Anderson, a 29-year-old man who died at a private Louisiana jail facility after being outsourced from Harris County, filed a federal lawsuit earlier this year against the county, Sheriff Ed Gonzalez and the LaSalle Correctional Center.
