FORT WORTH, Texas — A Fort Worth woman with a form of epilepsy that rendered her unable to communicate effectively was taken to Tarrant County Jail instead of a hospital after a relative called 911 and now is in a coma, her body covered with large bruises that authorities can't explain.
Kelly Masten, who is 38 but has the mentality of a 6-year-old, spent 10 days in the jail, where her family believes she was not administered the medication she needs.
"She should have never been taken to jail, she shouldn't have spent 10 days in jail," said her sister, Kristina Salinas.
