Doctors at UF Health who evaluated a broken, bruised and unresponsive Charles Faggart after he’d arrived from the Duval County jail on April 7 concluded he did not have fentanyl in his system or suffer a seizure, contradicting key details released by the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office about the controversial in-custody death.
