NOVEMBER 14, 2008 - After Emily Rae Rice, 24, bled to death in the Denver City Jail on February 19, 2006, the city is poised to pay her family $3 million to settle a federal lawsuit.  The City of Denver also agreed to make changes in policies handling inmate medical problems. Rice died in jail from injuries sustained in a drunken-driving crash 20 hours after she was released from the hospital. Her cries for help from here cell were ignored, and she ultimately bled to death from her injuries.  Rice had suffered a lacerated spleen in the accident, which was not detected at the hospital.  The Denver City Council will be voting on the settlement, as well as disciplinary and policy changes, next week. The settlement would be the largest ever paid by Denver for a personal injury case.
