I'm late on this, and wouldn't bother if it weren't for the video. Just stunning.
It's hard to shock people in this modern wired world, but even the chief deputy of the Hillsborough County Sheriff's office in Florida found the security camera video of a jailer dumping a quadriplegic man out of his wheelchair appalling.
"It can happen to anybody at any time," the man in the wheelchair, Brian Sterner, warned TODAY co-host Meredith Vieira on Wednesday in New York. "Hopefully, that's what will come out of this, that this negative way of dealing with life and people will change."
Shocking... and earlier only one deputy, the fat lady who dumped the guy on the floor was suspended... She should have been suspended by her thumbs over hot coals until she couldn't take it any more... Then lower her. How could you do that to a poor soul like that? Disgraceful. D.
