A minute later, Anthony, the jailer, and Adams, the nurse, went into the cage, took off the paper gown and placed Perdue "in the restraint chair nude," Hall's report said.
They took her gown off of her. That means that she was not trying to make some sort of McGyver noose out of it. Otherwise it would read that they took the gown away from her.
When you are holding something they take it away, when you are wearing something they take it off.
This was investigated. People were fired.
Even in the days when we used the stocks we didn't put them in naked.
There is more then one police officer quoted in the report. More then one tried to intervene. They thought it was wrong to do this. So you can take the side of the jailer and nurse who engaged in inappropriate behavior but you can not take the side of the police officers who were the witnesses.
You have all but called the police officers who witnessed this liars. That it happened is not in dispute. That it was wrong is not in dispute. How much, if anything she should get is.
I did not call anyone a liar. I said we don't know because we weren't there. I also said that if the officer behaved inappropriately then I have no problem with her being fired. That being said, this lady doesn't deserve one cent from the county. She owns some blame here.
