Background

I want his life and untimely passing to mean something I don't want his death to only be a horrible tragedy, I want something to change as a result so that his death had a purpose for greater good.
I want his name to live on via something like " Baers Law "


The main change I want to see happen is in relation to The policy and procedure of narcan administration. Currenly according to Riverside Sheriffs Departments Policy and Procedure, they all have narcan/access to narcan. and there is no reason they should be out of narcan as it is provided for free by the state of california. The sheriffs excuse for the overdose deaths in his facility was "we can't save them all" thats bullshit, yes in somecases that is true. But in my mans case it isnt true, he could have been saved this was preventable. It says the sheriffs have the choice to narcan or not narcan and so long as the decision is made in good faith, well I feel that NOT narcaning isn't in good faith at a jail where they have had more then a few overdose deaths in the last few months, they should know a young inmate with no underlining health issues that it most likely is a overdose and to ATTEMPT narcan. It is not like it would hurt..he already isn't breathing with no pulse. They instead chose to give prolonged CPR for 10min knowing that the results of such may lead to brain death, and EMTs gave the narcan upon there arrival 10min later,and it in the end resulted in my fiance regaining a pulse thanks to the narcan but resulted in his brain death. and ultimetly lead to his death.


I want it to be mandatory for the sheriff's to call the inmate's emergency contact in events of emergency where outlook is possibly grim (&honestly all instances where an inmate is removed in a emergency vehicle the emergency contact should be notified to make medical decisions the sheriff's should not have that power. Or perhaps have all incoming inmates fill out an advance directive stateing THERE wishes in a emergency situation.)

The family should not have to post a bond in order to know if son is critical or stable or even alive for that matter I understand keeping inmates location private but his health shouldn't be in the hands of cops who obviously didn't protest his health up to that point very well.
I want health care facilities to be more forth coming and honest about situations and not secretive and withholding important details.
I want California bail to be free , a O.R. or compassion release when a inmate is in critical care, immobile, possibly brain dead or going to die in immediate future so families without the means can spend the last days with there loved ones and get to be there for them when they take there last breath should that be the outcome. We should not have had to pay 120,000$ cash upfront (60,000 will be returned and the other 50,000 money we planned to spend so he and I could marry and have a baby before sentencing is gone instead of spending it so Baer could live a few years free before going to do a few years we were forced to spend it in order to sit with the shell of him) in order to be there with our loved one and know what is going on and to make his health decisions. That's not right. Not right for us and especially not right for those families who don't have the financial stability to be able to do that. We were fortinate in that we had it but it broke the bank for us....I can only imagine what others go thru not being able to do or know anything, the suffering in not knowing they must feel kills me. (Cause i know how i felt during the 24hrs of knowing but not getting answers before we posted bond)

My heart aches for the loss of my soul mate and I hope something can be done to prevent the loss of more men and women.
