SACRAMENTO, Calif. -- A California man is suing the Sacramento County Sheriff’s office for cruel and unusual punishment.
The trial started Tuesday in the US District Court, and accuses the sheriff’s department of forcing Drake S. Jones, face down into raw sewage. A surveillance camera recorded the entire chain of events.
Jones was arrested earlier in the day for a fight and was sitting in the cell by himself. While Jones was sitting there, the video shows the raw sewage coming up from the drain into the cell. Jones started banging on the window to alert the deputy’s and several stormed in forcing him face down into what appears to be brown waste.
Jones, who is seeking damages from the 2008 incident, claims that he is suffering from (PTSD) post traumatic stress disorder.
