Some youth got quite a nasty surprise when they were visited by some deputies:
“Without physical provocation and/or physical gestures from B.B., Deputy Bowers held B.B. down on his bed and shocked him repeatedly with a taser. While he was tasing B.B., Deputy David Bowers threatened to sodomize B.B.”
This is only part of the story. Other things happened to the three other youths in the story. And the four youths in this story were not the ones the center called the deputies for .
The guardian of the youth has filed a lawsuit and rightfully so. I don’t know what was going through the minds of the deputies, but how awful for these youth to most likely be traumatized again by authority figures in their lives.
Sometimes when I read stories like this, I know there is “more to the story,” but nothing excuses the comments and nastiness on the part of these deputies. I wouldn’t wonder if they were paired together because no one else wanted them for partners. Indeed, likely they are the sorts of people IRL who would give ya the creeps.
