Jail detainee died from methamphetamine overdose, jury could find that nurse who failed to
render any treatment was deliberately indifferent to need for medical attention but not
that deputies acted unconstitutionally; plaintiff not required to prove that nurse was
aware that detainee had ingested lethal dose of meth if need for medical attention
based on severe symptoms was obvious even to non-medical professionals.
