[@S.Pri8]

If he hasn't already, this officer should apply for a C.O. position in a prison. They need some real bad and he has a lot of energy to be one. Then he can see how well all that energy he has really works out for him in there. With those that's NEVER going home.

[@dclay2343]

@@dclay2343And you know what happens? Go to jail in Florida and find out. Guards dont even interact with inmates any longer. They throw you in with the inmates. Shut the door. Its survival of the savages in jail in Florida right now. I saw a prison channel who did years in prison and had-to do short time in jail. He said he never been in so many fights, ever.

[@ItsCoreyLynxxYall]

@@frisk151 Your argument is dumb. You weren't supposed to get abused either yet you accept it like a submissive good doggie. All while trying to talk tough on the internet. That's a typical boomer mindset too. "I suffered so you should too". The officers don't have the right to put their hands on an inmate over words. How dim witted. 😆

[@daleestep9518]

I don't think you people realize how jail in prison work and I did prison time you mess with those guards you're going to get dealt with that Guard didn't take off on that inmate for no reason not to mention we seen the edit in the video what do you think we're stupid or something

[@ItsCoreyLynxxYall]

We realize that there's this thing called human rights and the constitution that says inmates aren't supposed to be abused by guards. If guards are too emotionally weak to handle words they shouldn't have taken that job. No go be a good boy and lick the boots of the government some more.

[@pauloutloud6287]

Wasn't personal. Garcia started this a long time ago. When getting searched against that wall he says " If you move while I'm searching through your shoes I'm going to take that as aggression fo what I gotta do ". Thus giving justification to do what this guy did. This happened to a guy right beside me that was mentally handicapped but, Garcia was the aggressor. The door to the next cell is on that wall.

[@josephrobinson5452]

You ant lying and even after this situation, that correction officer would still get jumped or stabbed some other day by a bunch of inmates for his behavior because inmates don't tolerate correction officers disrespecting them and could easily make one day the last day you live and many of them have nothing to lose by doing this. That foolish officer is going end up learning the hard way and other officers are not going to wanna work with him anymore because that makes them a target for death as well.

[@BLACK_MikeHammer]

Man some of those guys are probably being booked on trespassing, driving on a suspended license, back child support payments😂😂.. You don't expect any of them to add 'apo(assault on a police officer)' to their minor charges.. Nah man, fight your own damn battle. This isn't the big house where dudes are doing actual time and don't give two f***s about assaulting a c.o.

[@BLACK_MikeHammer]

A lot of the Harris county sheriffs are themselves young dudes, many in their early to mid 20's. So could be a case of this deputy knowing the inmate from the streets and they had some prior friction; the deputy was trying to establish himself as the head honcho and ended up taking whatever issues he had with the inmate too far.. Every city/county jail has incidents like this every other day, deputies whooping up on inmates, so this in of itself is not that big of a deal. Unless the inmate suffered grievous bodily harm and was really busted up bad, this lawsuit will probably not go to far. Definitely not the $750k-$1M the attorney on the panel says will be paid out. He might get a couple thousands in compensation($10-$20k) and dropping of some of the charges he was originally booked on(long as they're not violent felonies)..

[@ItsCoreyLynxxYall]

Are you seriously saying that blatant human rights violations caught on camera are not that big of a deal? That's not something to normalize.

[@BLACK_MikeHammer]

@@ItsCoreyLynxxYall This wasn't any blatant human rights violations bud. Chill out.. If the deputy had punched the inmate with the inmate shackled up then that's in the territory of civil and human rights abuses.. Definitely not this. The deputy had no business throwing hands on the inmate but let's pump the brakes. This happens almost every day in most correctional facilities(if you've ever been locked up you would know). Doesn't make it right but it's nothing out of the ordinary. I can bet you if the inmate didn't suffer major physical trauma he won't get squat and if he does it'll be a few grand tops.. It is what it is, it's jail not the eagle scouts.
