egregious abuses by the State that directly caused a citizen's death.
What were the egregious abuses, specifically?
They didn’t directly cause his death, either.

Withholding food, water, medication and medical attention.
Holding him indefinitely in pretrial detention.
Putting him in solitary confinement in a cell with a pool of standing water.
Refusing to check on him for days on end.
Reporting that he was in "ok" condition for days after his death.
I'm sure I'm omitting some.
