EL PASO, Texas (KVIA) -- An El Paso family said they had to go request medical help for George Vargas because jail workers were not doing anything about him not feeling well for days.
Vargas, 27, was being held at the El Paso County Jail since March of 2025.
ABC-7 spoke with the Vargas family.
The Vargas family said no one from the El Paso County Sheriff's Office or any other local or federal agencies reached out to them since he died.
The Vargas family set up a GoFundMe page to help cover funeral costs.
