On February 23 1990 an anonymous phone call was placed to the Paulsboro, New Jersey Police Department concerning domestic violence at 1546 S. Delaware Street, the residence of Gerald “Jerry” Kearney and his family. When police arrived there was an argument going on between Mr. and Mrs. Kearney. Even though his wife, Chyrll, begged police not to take him, four officers bodily took him away from the home, arrested him and put him in jail. Shortly after he was put in his cell, police say Jerry hung himself with his T-shirt. Jerry Kearney was 25 years of age.

The similarities between this and the Gary Edwards case are striking! It appears that additional investigation is in order.

I would hate to think this was foul play cop style, but am not naive enough to think it never happens because it does. It is like the pink elephant in the room everyone smells but no one acknowledges!!!

I believe there was another jail death by tee shirt in Ada Okla not long ago.  Anyone have information on this death?
