Found Deceased KY - James “Garfield” Grubbs, 70, didn't make it to nursing home after release from jail, Bob’s Creek community, near Cawood, 25 Jan 2026

Likely whoever is paying the man's nursing home bills. Either private pay or Medicaid.
Medicaid does not pay for transportation outside of medical care apointments (though returning him to the nursing facility should qualify, in my opinion). This info is for another state, but has some details - but it is NOT easy. You can't just call someone and say I need a ride and medicare is paying for it. There's a LOT of hoops to jump through and for a person with perhaps cognitive issues? I can't see them being able to manage it without assistance. Medicaid: Non-Emergency Medical Transportation..

The whole situation is unbeliably sad, he seems to have been failed in so many ways.
