This just really made my blood boil. How the deputies are taunting this kid with saying stupid shit like "Can we put him down?" "How much for the doggy in the window?" constant taunts about going in a restraint chair. Not only did these braindead idiots taunt and abuse a very vulnerable 19 year old they attempted to keep it hidden for nearly 2 years by not releasing any documents or videos relating to this matter. Below is the contact information for the Washington Township's administration in Montgomery County, Ohio that is 100% responsible for overseeing every one of their brain dead deputies.

This is atrocious. I don't know how those people can live with themselves. Or how they can so so quickly dehumanize another to justify to themselves the way they treat another human being. And how not uncommon that capacity is in our culture but especially in police and COs.

Please tell me there is a lawsuit forthcoming

Don't you mean paid leave and reassignment to a new police department?

Things like this should be a firing squad not a lawsuit

Lawsuits for change for the better. They both set case president and hold the department liable for damages.

I really can't put myself through watching this video. The screenshot is horrible enough. What a senseless tragedy.

It's really rough. If I was taken in again without my meds I could see myself ending up in a similar state. Luckily I know my rights and the police would never have entered my home in the first place. With the warrant though they would have taken him anyway.
