Kentucky State Police Trooper James Cameron Wright has finally been indicted by the feds for multiple civil rights violations, which were not only known by his chain of command, but some of which were personally reviewed and approved by the literal head of the Kentucky State Police. This includes beatings, perjury, and more. Kentucky civil rights attorney Chris Wiest gives us the scandalous details, including exclusive new bodycam footage of one of the incidents.

KSP trooper indicted on excess force charges facing lawsuit for tasing unarmed man multiple times
LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WAVE) - A trooper with Kentucky State Police who was indicted for allegedly violating civil rights is now facing a federal lawsuit.
The lawsuit, filed Monday, June 16, claims Trooper James Cameron Wright used excessive force during a traffic incident on June 19, 2024, and violated Dawson Blevins’ constitutional rights. Wright pulled over Blevins and his co-worker, the driver, on their way to work at a construction site in Hardin County.
The lawsuit says Wright pulled them over since the driver wasn’t wearing a seatbelt, but was more interested in Blevins than the driver, since he believed he recognized Blevins from a previous encounter.
“To me, I wasn’t even in the picture because I had my seatbelt on,” Blevins said. “I wasn’t breaking no laws. His only issue should have been with the driver. I didn’t want to be in that situation.”
According to the lawsuit, the driver told Wright there could possibly be a roach in his car since he used to smoke weed in there, but no longer did so. The driver told Wright that he had nothing to hide. Wright then told Blevins he needed to get out of the car, so he could search it for a ‘roach,’ a marijuana cigarette.

Call a K-9 unit. Any roaches or year-old french fries will be found in a jiffy.
I watch “The Civil Rights Lawyer” videos now and again on YouTube. He’s a solid individual. Calm and reasonable. He’s no raving cop hater.
The Founders were all about checks and balances. Folks like this guy provide a much needed check against police excesses.
👍
Yeah, it appears that police department has a problem.
“In police body camera footage, once Blevins does get out of the car, immediately, Wright tries to put Blevins’ hands behind his back and tells him to drop the phone, wallet, and cigarettes in his hands. When Blevins answers back that he’s video-taping this, the video appears to show Wright push him down and tell him he’s under arrest.
Blevins asks what he’s under arrest for while standing back up, only to be tased by Wright and fall back to the ground.
Wright tells Blevins to lie on his belly, and Blevins says he is. Blevins was then tased again by Wright.
Wright told Belvins to put his hands behind his back before tasing him again. Blevins told him he couldn’t put his hands behind his back while his body appeared to be twitching. Blevins was then tased again. As Blevins continued telling Wright that he was unable to put his hands behind his back, Wright walked up to Blevins and pepper-sprayed him in his eyes.”

According to the lawsuit, Blevins ended up with two compression fractures to his thoracic spine. It also says Blevins was charged with multiple crimes, but all charges were dismissed on June 5, 2025.
Good thing this pig wasn’t wearing a mask. This is why we need to be able to identify armed agents of the State.
It only took a year to drop the charges on an obviously innocent man.

I agree. that is why I watch him too.
Really hard to watch the video. Hands at his sides, pepper sprayed in the face.
Cop gotta rot for this
“””“In police body camera footage,”””
So the cop acted like this knowing it was being recorded.
I watch the “Civil Rights Lawyer” as well. He is very informative on the law, citing the state’s code section. He explains when the officers are in the right and when they are definitely in the wrong.
I watch him also.
Did you see the one of the Phoenix police holding that guy on the pavement last year causing 3rd degree burns on the guy?
Or the one in Yuba City Ca where they had hold of a handcuffed veteran and then proceeded to break his neck paralyzed him? 40 million that cost Yuba City.
This is out of control. These police officers need to go through mental evaluation.
Then...there is the videos of the organization “Street Cops” who hold training sessions for cops.
Way out of control.
He was confident that nothing would be done about it.
Which should worry people.
It is not the "bad eggs" it is those who look the other way who corrupt the system.
Yeah. He apparently felt confident that he could get away with it so I would assume he has done it many times before. Maybe others in the department also did it .
“Maybe others in the department also did it .”
Any organization is only as good as the worst psychopath they tolerate in their ranks.

Yes, indeed.
It should be the good guys vs. the bad guys. But it’s now a three-way fight.
It’s the good guys vs. the bad guys vs. the cops.
I don’t remember any of this from my younger days. But today - based on my observations and experience - 15% of cops are garbage, complete trash.
The other 85% range from adequate to excellent. But that number is way too low. After all, who would respect a medical practice where 15% of the doctors deliberately hurt their patients?

I so agree. I don’t understand how these bad cops are even hired. Are they that hard up? Like the school systems?
The first are the helpers, people who genuinely want to help those who are in trouble, the second is the defenders who want to defend people and the last are the controllers who want everything everywhere neat and tidy.
Part of the problem is that all of them think of themselves as "good people" so what they do is, by definition, right.
The helpers do not see that they can become enablers, the defenders do not see that they can become bullies and the controllers do not see that their desire for order is not the highest law. All of them need to remember that just because they think something does not mean that what they are thinking is right.
And they are now part of a bureaucracy that is always right. Because any bureaucracy thinks that it is always right. So when an officer brings in someone claiming that this is a wanted criminal, he is right. And it follows that the person who is claiming that he is not that wanted criminal is either lying or crazy. No need to check finger prints or anything like that. The bureaucrat is always right. And so the man ends up in the nuthouse getting more and more powerful drugs pumped into him every day because no one thought that maybe just maybe they should check their work.
The biggest problem is the fact that no one wants to put any checks and balances on them. How dare you second guess them? I dare because humans ain't perfect.
It is easier to deal with those few police officers who are down right crooked because you know where you are with them.
They know who their “Bad Cops” are. They don’t do anything about them. They allow it to continue.
That’s the problem.
When they finally fix their own shiiite, more people will trust them.
Now? No phooking way.
I know too many bad ones that crapped the pool for any good ones to matter.
Wright should be fired for his perjury alone. Instead he gets cop of the year award.
