In August 2015 Nicholas Tucker, a 37-year-old commercial fisherman from Ketchikan serving a sentence at Spring Creek Correctional Center in Seward, developed a spinal cord infection. Over six days of written medical requests, a wheelchair trip to the clinic and notes recording severe radiating pain, staff gave him ibuprofen and a muscle relaxant. Other prisoners were moving him to the toilet and writing his requests for him by the time a nurse found he could not get out of his bunk. He was flown to Anchorage for emergency surgery and is permanently partially paralyzed. The State of Alaska settled in June 2019 for $1,800,000 plus $200,000 in Medicaid liens.
