The family of Segundo Guallpa, a detained person at Rikers Island who died in City custody, have filed a wrongful death lawsuit against the City of New York and several Department of Corrections (DOC) officers for $25 million.

The Guallpa family has filed a federal lawsuit in the Southern District of New York on Nov. 2 against the City of New York as well as against the corrections officers that the family allege were negligent in acting to interfere and offer aid to Guallpa before he died.
