Woman Dies In Crow Wing County Jail

An investigation is underway after a woman died while being held in Crow Wing County Jail in Brainerd at the weekend. The 54-year-old inmate was found unresponsive in her bunk at 8:49 a.m. Saturday, the Crow Wing County Sheriff's Office said. Lifesaving efforts were undertaken by jail staff and paramedics, but she was pronounced dead at 9:19 a.m. She has been identified as Shannon Lee Cook. Authorities say the woman was a "boarder" from Beltrami County, and was being held temporarily in Crow Wing County Jail. The investigation is being carried out by a separate authority – the Morrison County Sheriff's Office – which Crow Wing County says is "routine protocol in all in-custody deaths." Police say no foul play is suspected at this time. Her cause of death will be determined from an autopsy by the Ramsey County Medical Examiner.
