Here is a shocking video I found on MSNBC’s site, just click the image.
Two weeks ago, Brian Sterner, a quadriplegic, was shown on video being wheeled into the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s office in Florida. When the Deputy asked him to stand up, for what seems to be a routine frisk, he says he is a quadriplegic. The deputy does not believe him and litterally picks up his wheel chair and dumps him onto the floor. He hit his face pretty hard and now he says his right side is messed up.
He says that he is only looking for an apology for the incident that happened on Jan. 29, and for recognition that our jails and prisons have issues.
“It’s not about one deputy, it’s not about the sheriff, it’s not about the governor,” Sterner sad. “It’s about this ridiculous — ridiculous — down-pression of people across the world, economic or whatever you want to call it. It’s just like Rodney King got beat on the street and I got thrown out of my wheelchair. It happens to people every day. It’s just now there’s cameras that catch it.”
