COLDWATER TOWNSHIP, Mich. — Two more arrests have been made in connection to an inmate who overdosed at Lakeland Correctional Facility last year.
William Wilson, 57, died suddenly on Oct. 29, 2023, according to Michigan State Police (MSP). An autopsy later revealed meth-filled balloons inside his body, and Wilson’s death was ruled the result of an overdose.
The Michigan Department of Corrections (MDOC) learned Wilson had obtained the balloons during a visit two days prior to his death. We’re told security footage shows a Detroit woman handing a small object to him. Wilson is also seen swallowing it.
The woman was taken into custody this March on several felonies, including delivery of a controlled substance causing death. MSP has since identified the suspect as Dezaray Brown-Bobo.
