The death of a man strapped to a chair for 46 hours in a San Luis Obispo County jail puts a focus on the conditions for mentally ill inmates in California's county jails. Here are the stories you shouldn't miss today: Andrew Holland's legs and arms were shackled to a chair in a jail observation cell, where he sat in his own filth, eating and drinking almost nothing, for nearly two days in January. He was naked except for a helmet and mask covering his face and a blanket that slipped off his lap. San Luis Obispo County jail officials say Holland, who had schizophrenia, was restrained because he had been hitting himself in the head and was kept there because he refused to not harm himself further. Within 40 minutes of being unbound, he had stopped breathing. Holland's death has provoked outrage, a $5-million legal settlement and questions about the way California jails handle a growing number of mentally ill inmates.

After 23 years in office, the notorious Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio (R) might not win re-election. The latest Arizona Republic/Morrison/Cronkite News poll of the Arizona county sheriff's race shows Arpaio nearly 15 points behind Democrat Paul Penzone, 45.9 percent to 31.1 percent. Arpaio, who calls himself "America's toughest sheriff," made national headlines last year when he spoke out in favor of Donald Trump and joined him in the mission to "seek the truth" about President Obama's birth certificate. Arpaio's massive slip is likely due -- at least in part -- to voters' widespread opposition to building a border wall and deporting all undocumented immigrants, both proposals Arpaio supports. The poll found that 30.8 percent of the county's voters strongly disagree with mass deportation, while 41.7 percent disagree.
