Once arrested, it is the states responsibility to ensure the prisoners safety.
There’s a reasonable standard as to what that care might entail. not sure if yur flopping like a fish is covered.. seat belt or not.
Personal Injury lawyers are salivating at the chance to represent..
Its not easy to protect someone from themself. You can’t seriously say it’s the cops fault that he injured himself. That is ridiculous and is not what it means by protecting someone in custody.
Agreed. Protocol to seat belt/secure arrestees went into effect shortly before the incident but the arresting officers obviously didn't get the memo or didn't read it.
