Family: Lack of discharge plan likely a factor in man's death

DENTON — The family of a man found dead Monday, Jan. 19, under a Denton bridge believes lack of communication and lack of a discharge plan at the Caroline County jail contributed to his death.

Scott Michael deNagy, 49, was found dead under the bridge on Legion Road crossing Watts Creek, a week after he had been released from the Caroline County Detention Center. He is listed as being of no fixed address.

His older brother, John deNagy of California, and older sister, Tracy Lea of Taneytown, Md., are among those family members who believe their brother’s death was caused in part by a failure of the detention center to provide adequate notification to outside entities upon his release.

He was a grown man and was responsible for himself. Its nobody's fault but his own.

I know for real 3:42 and 3:51. Isn't this just unbelievable. Next thing you know some people are going to want the government to start wiping their butts for them or at the very minimum telling them how to do it.

Had he insisted that he was an illegal from south of the border he would have had all kinds of assistance offered to him.

Hey jerks ! Your missing the point. How many people do you see walking down Naylor mill everyday? Just released with no plans. Sooner or later one is gonna rob or steal maybe kill because he has no where to go.

It sounds as though family abandoned him. The prison had to buy him shoes and socks while there. Where was the family? no money sent to him even to buy shoes???!!! He didn't call family cause they were never there for him (so it sounds). Now, it seems as though family feels guilty. Sad all around!

Sounds like the family wants someone to blame besides themselves OR they are just trying to get some free $$$!

You are clueless 5:20.
First of all try reading the article before commenting. He had a place to go. He chose to not act for whatever reason.
You are the jerk. Either you didn't read the article or you are too damn stupid to comprehend.
