Indiana Police Release Bodycam Footage of Fatal Encounter with Epileptic Man, Family Demands Answers
Sep 30, 2024, 03:05 AM
Indiana authorities have released bodycam footage of an incident that led to the death of 26-year-old epileptic man, Rhyker Earl. The Jasper County Sheriff's Office made the video public with permission from the Indiana State Police, who are conducting an independent investigation. The footage shows Earl being restrained by first responders as he pleaded for help. Earl's family attorney had claimed that police held him down for 15 minutes, smothered him with a pillow, and refused to allow family members to intervene. These claims are disputed following the release of the footage. Earl's relatives, including his two children, are demanding answers, asserting that the situation should not have escalated as it did. Dozens of people gathered on Sunday to honor Earl, days after the video's release.
