Lawyer Jeffrey Rosenblum said during a press conference Monday afternoon that they are seeking a court order requiring Doolen to “immediately make changes” at the jail so no more suicides in confinement can occur.

Jerry Lawler said at the press conference that Doolen had promised him he would “personally keep an eye out” for Brian Lawler. He said he took a picture of Brian after he was taken to Regional One Medical Center and texted it to Doolen.
