www.kgns.tv Zapata resident files lawsuit against sheriff’s office claiming excessive force
A Zapata County resident has filed a lawsuit against the sheriff’s office and four deputies for the alleged use of excessive force that resulted in the amputation of his leg.
“His leg bent backwards in the opposite direction that your knee is supposed to bend, so forcefully, that his leg, you can hear it on the video, it makes a horrible crunching popping sound, and it just splits the leg all the way off, except for just a little tissue in the front,” said Barrientos. “The deputies had to apply two tourniquets to save his life because quit literally, Mr. Barrientos was bleeding to death.”
Don't ever forget that cops are animals.
