Los Angeles County Sheriff Alex Villanueva is accused of supporting his deputies using excessive force and committing civil rights violations.
A federal lawsuit stemming from a December 2020 case alleges the sheriff has created an atmosphere within the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department where civil rights violations are not only approved but encouraged.
The December incident involved Larry Jefferson, who was having a mental health episode. Christopher Chambers, his brother-in-law, called for help, but no one responded.
A couple of hours later is when everything unfolded. Cellphone video captured the disturbing incident between Chambers, Jefferson and law enforcement.
On Monday, Roland spoke with Christopher Chambers and attorney, Faisal Gill about the lawsuit filed against Los Angeles County Sheriff Alex Villanueva and the incident that prompted it.
