The Silent Death Of Jeremy Leon Sells Sr| Family Seek Justice For Brother Who Died In State Custody
Jeremy Leon Sells Sr. died in state custody on October 29, 2025. Weeks later, his name remains unspoken, his death unpublicized, and his family is demanding answers.
Jeremy was a resident at the Dismas Charities facility on Algonquin Parkway in Louisville, Kentucky. Following his death, his family has faced a wall of silence. Inquiries to multiple news agencies, the Kentucky State Police, Louisville Metro Homicide, and the Attorney General’s office have yielded no information. The official investigation is being conducted internally by Probation and Parole, not an independent police agency, raising concerns of a conflict of interest.

The family’s anguish was compounded by the initial explanation from the coroner: an apparent overdose. This narrative, which they believe was a convenient cover-up by Dismas Charities, was shattered on November 18, 2025. On that morning, the family was notified that Jeremy’s official toxicology report came back completely clean, showing no chemicals in his system that could have caused his death.
The Sells family now holds a painful truth: their brother did not die from an overdose. They allege that Dismas Charities allowed something to happen to Jeremy and attempted to conceal it with a false narrative. Their fight for a transparent, external investigation continues, a quest to ensure Jeremy Leon Sells Sr. is more than a silent statistic.
