Darren Rainey died at the Dade Correctional Institution (Dade CI) in unincorporated Miami-Dade County, Florida on June 23, 2012.〔Brown, Julie K. "(Behind bars, a brutal and unexplained death )" ((Archive )). ''Miami Herald''. May 17, 2015. Retrieved on May 25, 2015.〕 The prison is in proximity to Florida City, and is south of Homestead. In 2014 Dade CI prisoner Mark Joiner accused prison authorities of fatally torturing prisoner Darren Rainey, who was mentally ill, by scalding him in a shower.〔Brown, Julie K. "(Prisoner: I cleaned up skin of inmate scalded in shower; human-rights groups call for federal intervention )" ((Archive )). ''Miami Herald''. June 25, 2014.〕 A prisoner stated that 50-year-old Rainey, DOC#060954, had defecated in his cell and refused to clean it, and because of that the prison guards punished him. He died on June 23, 2012.〔Brown, Julie K. "(Behind bars, a brutal and unexplained death )" ((Archive )). ''Miami Herald''. May 17, 2014. Retrieved on June 28, 2014.〕 Originally the police classified the death as unexplained, and the DOC never punished any staff. Two officers on duty at the time of the death later received promotions. The police began interviewing witnesses after the ''Miami Herald'' obtained public records and made a visit to the prison.〔Brown, Julie K. "(Prison death is one of several raising questions in Florida )" ((Archive )). ''Miami Herald''. June 14, 2014.

"(Dade Correctional Institution warden fired after inmate death in shower reported )" ((Archive )). ''Miami Herald''. July 17, 2014. Retrieved on July 4, 2015.〕 As of May 2015 the Miami-Dade Police Department has not criminally charged anybody, and the Miami-Dade medical examiner never conducted an autopsy.〔 That month the U.S. Justice Department began investigating Rainey's death.〔Cordner, Sascha and the Associated Press.
