According to sheriff’s reports, Larry Dean Temple, 61, of Willits, was suffering from long- standing heart problems when he was booked into jail Sept. 16. Temple was found unconscious and unre- sponsive on the floor of the Mendocino County Jail’s medical isolation unit on Sept. 20. Lifesaving measures were taken by medical staff at the jail and at the Ukiah Valley Medical Center but were unable to save him. Temple was pronounced dead at 6:30 p.m. Sept. 20. Temple was booked into jail Sept. 16 on sus- picion of driving under the influence; he was arrested after being involved in a single-vehicle accident. Due both to concerns over the accident and his long-standing heart problems, Temple was placed in a medical isolation observation room after being booked into jail, said Sheriff’s Lt. Kurt Smallcomb. An autopsy was performed the day after Temple’s death but the Sheriff’s Office delayed releasing an official cause of death while wait- ing for toxicology reports to return.
