Kristoff St. John has filed a wrongful death lawsuit against the mental health hospital where his 24-year-old son, Julian St. John, committed suicide last November.
On November 23, Julian was found dead in a bathroom at the La Casa Mental Health Hospital in Long Beach where he was receiving treatment. He had suffocated himself with a plastic bag.
Kristoff’s lawsuit claims the facility was negligent when they failed to remove trash bags from his son’s room after he tried to asphyxiate himself just three weeks before his death.
To add insult to injury, there’s also evidence that shows the nurses were falsifying records.
