David H. Daudt died Friday morning in the prison infirmary of the Delaware Correctional Center (DCC) near Smyrna “following an illness,” according to a written statement.
Daudt, 41, was being held on traffic charges: DUI, driving without a valid license and no insurance.
The Department of Correction appears to have known Mr. Daudt was sick, as he was in the infirmary. However, the DOC appears to have gambled he was not sick enough to merit an ambulance ride to a real hospital.
Mr. Daudt lost the bet.
