A corrections officer noticed the 33-year-old was having a “medical episode” during the early hours of July 12. Correctional and jail medical staff treated Stine before she was removed by Dayton Fire, according to a Montgomery County Sheriff’s Office spokesperson.

“Upon arrival at the hospital deputies were informed that Stine was in stable condition but would be admitted. A judge released Stine from custody,” the spokesperson said in a statement to News Center 7.

The sheriff’s office spokesperson said their office tried to check on Stine’s condition Thursday, but the hospital did not have any available condition updates for their office because she was no longer in custody.

Stine’s family said she went from the jail to Kettering Health Dayton before being transferred to another hospital for surgery. They didn’t want to go on camera for an interview today after being told she was not expected to survive.

Stine had been booked in jail July 6 on a felony probation violation.

News Center 7 has reported on six other inmate deaths at the Montgomery County Jail. Matt Haines, chief deputy and jail commander, told our team last month that the investigation of the deaths involves interviews, evidence gathering, and intensive reviews of jail surveillance cameras.
