"You're in the middle of the road, and you need lights on your bike."



Seven troopers respond for the heinous crime. Suspect is tackled off the bike, kneed repeatedly, punched repeatedly, drop kicked, tasered multiple times, and maced (? Suspect complains multiple times aboot his eyes burning)....on a small town residential street at night.

Great response for a civil infraction that I've never heard of being enforced...seems appropriate. :facepalm:

Luckily, three of the troopers got criminally charged...

That will help with the guy's civil lawsuit that I'm sure he will be filing...if he hasn't already.
That is likely why the troopers were criminally charged, so that the troopers will lose their qualified immunity, and then the state can argue that they are not responsible for any civil liability that results.

..Otieno was not being aggressive or resisting. “He was trying to breathe,” . “If you were down there, restrained and all of these people on top of you, you would be trying to breathe. You would try to move, too, to let your lungs expand.”
Crump also discussed how the video shows that no one else in the room tried to help during the entire 11 minutes that Otieno was being smothered.

Grand Jury confirms indictment of 10 in death of Irvo Otieno
DINWIDDIE, Va. (WRIC) — A grand jury has formally indicted seven Henrico sheriff’s deputies and three employees of Central State Hospital in the death of Irvo Otieno.
Charges were brought last week by Dinwiddie Commonwealth’s Attorney Ann Baskervill through a slightly unusual procedure, but on Tuesday a grand jury returned a true bill for the second-degree murder charges sought, formalizing them against all 10 defendants.

Irvo Otieno was in the midst of an apparent mental health crisis on March 2 when Henrico Police took him to Parham Doctors Hospital under an emergency mental health order. However, police claim he became “physically assaultive” towards officers once they arrived at the hospital, and decided to take him to the Henrico County Jail instead.
On March 6, Henrico deputies transferred him out of the jail, taking him to Central State Hospital in Dinwiddie County. There, he died after being restrained by 7 deputies on the ground for about 12 minutes.
