Newly released LA County jail videos show violent use-of-force against inmates

Newly released surveillance videos taken inside Los Angeles County jails show violent use-of-force toward inmates. The videos were unsealed by a federal judge as part of a long running lawsuit filed by the American Civil Liberties Union against the L.A. County Sheriff’s Department. “They’re not following their own policies, and they’re really putting people are at risk of serious injury, or even death with some of these techniques they’re using,” said Corene Kendrick, deputy director of the ACLU’s National Prison Project.
