Trecia Harrison of Jamaica, the oldest of Esmin Green's six children, also called for criminal prosecution for the employees at Kings County Hospital in Brooklyn who failed her mother.

"Not only did they kill my mother once, they killed her twice when they tried to cover it up," Harrison told the New York Daily News. "She might have been alone in that hospital, but she wasn't alone in the world,"

Investigators have not yet determined how Green died. She had been waiting more than 24 hours for a bed and a security camera captured images that show her lying on the floor unconscious for more than an hour with security guards and other employees ignoring her.

The hospital has fired six employees. The Kings County Hospital president released a statement Tuesday saying that Green's family deserves "fair and just compensation" for her death, NY1 reported.
