Autopsy shows no sign of trauma in jail inmate’s death

The Bartholomew County Coroner’s office did not find any signs of trauma during an autopsy for a Bartholomew County Jail inmate who died in her cell.

Coroner Clayton Nolting said he is waiting for toxicology results in the death of Cathy A. Hull, 61, of 3036 Fairlawn Court, who was pronounced dead in her jail cell Thursday afternoon. The autopsy was done on Saturday, he said.

Indiana State Police, who are investigating, said they do not suspect foul play in the death.

First responders were called to the jail at 4:40 p.m., where they found Hull unresponsive in her bunk, Nolting said. When the coroner’s office arrived, Hull was the only one in the cell, he said.
