29. The police are, ultimately, the ones responsible for her death.

At the moment they arrested her, they took physical custody of her -- which means they are responsible for the fact that her death occurred in their custody. Instead of taking proper care of her, they put her in a cell alone, without constant observation, with the means to kill herself. It doesn't matter what happened up till that point -- the police owned this problem from the moment they arrested her and put her into handcuffs.
