2. Water Intoxication News Report HEADLINE: Jail death from excess water drinking raises questions (May 23, 2016) Ruben Nunez’s stay in San Diego’s Central Jail this past August was supposed to be short, less than a week, for a court hearing to determine whether psychiatrists at Patton State Hospital in San Bernardino could continue to involuntarily medicate him. Five days after he arrived at the jail, Nunez, 46, was dead from a psychiatric condition known as psychogenic water intoxication, or psychogenic polydipsia, that causes unrelenting thirst and can go hand-in-hand with serious mental illness. Sufferers drink water uncontrollably, sometimes to the point of death. Nunez’s death, one of 12 in San Diego jails in 2015, raises questions about whether staff failed to properly monitor him. Nunez, who grew up in San Diego, was diagnosed with schizophrenia as a teenager, according to his mother, Lydia Nunez. When he was taking his medication, he could be friendly and outgoing, she…
