Three New York Corrections officers are allegedly involved in the beating
death of an inmate while he was handcuffed. Had been
previously accused of similar attacks. The inmate was a forty
three year old. It just died on December tenth at
the Marsie Correctional Facility. To the CEOs and a sergeant
in Brooks death were previously named in federal lawsuits filed

(00:53):
by inmates. According to The New York Times, the suits
accused the guards of the attacks and left one man
to figure and another in a wheelchair. One of the
lawyers for the inmate says the fact that they failed
to rein in these officers that they knew had beaten
is also a direct contributed to mister Brooke's death. That's
the inmate that was killed. It is simply not enough

(01:17):
to con simply condemn the act and then go back
to business. The new report comes after New York Attorney
General Letitia James and Friday release shocking bodycam footage of
the guards violently beating the inmate well his hands were
cooked behind his back for about twenty minutes, beating him
on his head, chest in general area. He died the

(01:38):
next day. The inmate had been serving a twelve year
president sentenced for first degree assaults since twenty seventeen. They
have opened up an investigation. One correction officer since the
incident resigned and thirteen others have been suspended without pay.
The Governor of New York call for all individuals involved

(01:58):
to be fired. According to the lawsuits alleged assaults by
the same guards revealed similar details. In February twenty twenty,
correction officers allegedly beat an inmate in a bathroom at
the Marchi Prisoner and then accused him of attacking them.
One of the officers also accusing the assault was named
Nicholas Enzeloni. The inmate claimed he was walking out of

(02:20):
a bathroom stall and about the lightest cigarette with the battery,
where a guard stopped him the officer in order to
stand against the wall for a frisk, and then began
punching him in the head until he fell out to
the floor. Azeloni and two sergeants joined in on the beating.
The inmate claimed in the lawsuit, dding the guards and
dragged him out and drove him to the infirmary to
cover up the lawsuit. The law to cover up the assault,

(02:40):
The lawsuit claims the officers lied. They first told the
nurse he had harmed himself, and after being transferred to hospital,
they claimed another inmate had attacked him when he was
back in prison. He was sent to solitary confinement on
false disciplinary charges for sixty days. Later. The same year,
Sergeant Trombly and an officer two guards were implicating the

(03:02):
beating of the inmates that we just talked about, were
involved in the assault of another inmate. According to the lawsuit,
the inmate, called Alvarez, was cleaning the bathroom when an
officer pepper sprayed on without propagation. He was ordered against
the wall and an officer slammed his head repeatedly as
he was cuffed. The three officers kicked him in the
head before dragging him around. So big problems over there
at the Marsi facility. I wonder if they'll close it

(03:24):
down like they did over here in California in their prison.
That's it for now,
