I agree with much of what you say but how does she die if no foul play?
Bumping for what? Her family got their cash payout for doing zip. Unless you count withholding info about her mental instability. I'd love to see families with mental health issues acknowledge and manage their issues before the time comes where they stick out their hand and demand remittance for the loss of a family member. They were not being responsible for mitrice and they sure as heck weren't looking out for the safety of the community at large. And yep it's quite a bit like taleka Patrick with the finger pointing and blaming others for their failure to realize their situation. BTW in California your hands can be tied by laws and the family members themselves. People will still be there's demanding their payout.I really hope that this thread will get more attention and dedicated sleuthing from some of the many awesome folks on this site. I cannot think of a case that haunts me more than that of Mitrice Richardson. I have a lot that I'd like to contribute and again, I'm hopeful to see more eager eyes on this case and some ongoing, open dialogue would be such a great thing. Later, I plan to post some more, but for now, I just feel compelled to give this neglected thread a much-needed, well-deserved BUMP. I pray for answers and as a young woman, I feel so connected in various ways to Mitrice. I mean, this could happen to me or anyone. It's so disturbing and heart wrenching.
So again, BUMP for Mitrice Richardson, for her, her loved ones and for humanity...for JUSTICE.

This puts the police in tough spot. I'm sure they'd get in trouble for holding someone in jail simply for acting weird. But they also get in trouble for releasing someone who's acting weird.It's a shame that she was not held at the station until her mother could pick her up. I commend this family for pursuing the legal action that might hopefully make the PD change their procedures so this doesn't happen to someone else in the future.
My understanding was she didn't have a history of this level of mental illness. Her mother is heard on the recording telling the police she would come get her if they were going to release her that night because it would not be safe.Unless you count withholding info about her mental instability.

Six years after Richardsons mysterious disappearance from the custody of the Los Angeles County Sheriffs Department (LASD), there are still those who believe that law enforcement had a direct hand in Richardsons death which, to date, remains unsolved.
Michael Rossen, the officer now in charge of the Richardson case, says it is classified as an open death investigation, according to Rhonda Hampton. Hampton says Rossen told her that the case is now lead or clue driven as clues come in, they will investigate them.
Hampton does not believe this to be the case.
Firstly, I dont believe there are [or will be] that many people calling in with tips after five years; secondly I personally know of two individuals who repeatedly contacted the sheriffs department with information. One individual was never contacted. The other was contacted, but there was no follow-up by the sheriffs on the information provided, she said.
I've always wanted to retrace her steps to see how she could have ended up where she did. I don't believe police where involved. She was having a mental episode from what it sounds. Was she picked up by a passing motorist, a local in a nearby house, or she walked to the location and fell to her death or died from the heat? Or she encountered someone on her walk? Hard to say.Mitrice passed many homes and possibly a few 24 hour convenience stores on her walk from the police sub-station to where her body was found. Was her break with reality so far gone as to not stop and ask someone for help or to make a phone call to her family?

I tried looking myself before I made the post. Thank you for trying as well!
