Overview
- The Faggart family, which filed suit Tuesday, seeks unredacted reports and jail video they say the Sheriff’s Office has withheld.
- The FBI took over the criminal probe six months ago and offered no new information, and JSO says its internal review will wait for that case to finish.
- A heavily redacted jail report portrays Faggart as erratic, details his placement in a restraint chair with an anti-spit mask, and lists a witnessed seizure as the medical emergency.
- Hospital records and the family’s complaint say doctors found him bruised and unresponsive with no fentanyl detected, with taser barbs removed and injuries that included organ damage and an anoxic brain injury.
- Nine corrections employees were disciplined and remain reassigned, with any further internal action waiting on the federal case.
