FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. — A former inmate at the Broward County Jail took the stand Wednesday in the trial of a Broward Sheriff’s Office detention deputy charged with battery on an inmate.

Mark Evangelista says he was sweeping the floors nearby when the alleged assault occurred. He says he heard Deputy Delia Daly-England tell another deputy, “That’s what happens when you piss me off.”

The incident was caught on surveillance video in May 2012. The victim, Lauren Militello, was being booked into the Broward County Jail for a violation of probation charge.
