Holy shit, they're not kidding

Description of death via bugs

Thompson's death gained public attention in April after Harper released photos of his face and body covered in insects.

Thompson was dealing with untreated schizophrenia at the jail, according to an independent autopsy report released by the family, which said he "was neglected to death." An earlier report from the Fulton County medical examiner's office found no obvious signs of trauma on Thompson's body but noted a "severe bed bug infestation." It listed his cause of death as "undetermined."

From elsewhere:

Bed bug bites are not usually deadly, but in some rare cases, prolonged exposure to a massive bed bug infestation can cause severe anaemia, which can be lethal if left untreated.

Yuh.

They throw you in prison for arbitrary crimes, keep you there before any trial, then let you rot with bed bugs and die
