Corey Roberts was an alcoholic but his mother says that should not have been a death sentence. Jeannette Rafuse Rogers has been in court many times over the last six years since her son died after being arrested for public intoxication. Last week, a judge acquitted two former special constables of criminal negligence in the 2016 death of the 41-year old. They were accused of failing to conduct property safety checks on him before he was found dead in his cell. His mother says she's put her grieving on hold for years as she's been fighting for changes to the way police deal with people who are drunk. She's glad to see new policies around the use of "spit hoods" and possible alternatives to taking people to the so-called "drunk tank". Rafuse says she looks forward to spending time this summer with Corey's daughter, her granddaughter, and getting help for her PTSD as she processes the loss of her son.
