The tale of two police beatings of arrestees in Parkersburg, West Virginia, both my clients, and both caught on video – on the same camera! These have never been seen before on YouTube. They were litigated in federal court, by me, and resulted in an epic federal court ruling which created law that is still in existence today. #policevideos #civilrightslaw #civilrightslawyer

  1. Do you suppose that the cops are taking steroids? steroids can cause people to be violent. It is even worse because the steroid users are lifting weights. That's why they are taking steroids.

  2. Im reading all the praise you get for being a good lawyer, and you are and should be proud, but im also betting that living in west virginia nets you a lot of untrained cops who only employbwhat theyve kearned watching tv, starsky and hutch type programs, etc. Hured due to who their fathers know, pushed thru the academy, never really having to learn any of the importance of our rights. They sure could save the state millions if they started their training with ethics classes, used psychological testing to weed out violence proned cops, etc. Typically one would assume the average age for a cop going thru the academy to be in their early to mid 20s, able to be tught right from wrong as a cop. How the hell do they even get thru the psych stage of testing?!?

  3. That's just nuts! I've seen guards at prisons be evil, I've seen them lose their tempers and I myself was hand used and taken underneath stairs at Orient prison in Columbus for non-support (my ONLY felony ever due to the greedy county in which I was dumb enough to have a kid in) and was taken under a set of spiral stairs and beaten after the guard tried breaking my arm which both arms were cuffed behind my back all over something that never even happened. The guard picked me up by my right hand but I didn't weigh enough to overtake the strength I had (even while missing my right middle finger) so it wouldn't break, he even picked me up and carried me up a few of the stair on the other staircase trying to break the bone! I've seen them beat a Hispanic kid to death in the chow hall by bouncing his head off the concrete floor for talking at the chow hall. I watch all your videos, I'm a recent subscriber, and I wonder if even you are aware of the depth of which guards will go to hurt or torture inmates, even with the knowledge of supervisors, even the warden herself. Only one prison or jail that I've ever been in (all prisoners must go to orient to be classified so orient and north central were the ones I was at for my only felony but I have been to a few county jails over driving infractions, such as multiple driving under suspensions, and one dui) where I had NOT witnessed guards who seriously abused/tortured/beat inmates and that was at North Central prison north of delaware, Ohio. Those guys were trained up, treated us much better nearly human, de-escalation techniques were sound, there were no apparent cruel guards to speak of. Unlike the guard who beat me at Orient and the ones who killed the Mexican kid plus the one who thoroughly enjoyed hurting inmates and he would come to the cell and find two inmates who were both asleep, he would open the door with a manual key quiet as possible so he wouldn't wake us up, open the door all the way (they opened out) then he'd get a run at it with the door in hand and he would be at a near full sprint when he twisted his core and slammed the door as hard as anyone could ever possibly slam it, giving us headaches, bleeding eardrums, and of course a terrible fear of going to sleep for the rest of our lives. I'd so very much love to get a hold of both those guards as a civilian would another citizen in a fair fight. What they did to me, to many of us, I have no doubt I could take the both of them on at the same time and probably %©¥¥ 'em both for what they did. Probably still working there today.
