Jefferson Parish Cops being sued

I remember this case. I remember thinking, I didn't think autism caused that kind of action from a person. Other mental instabilities, yes, could cause a person to attack and bite their father. But autism?
Did someone have a clock?
We can't have police sitting on people. That's not a good idea. Tase the kid if you need to. Or, maybe time to bring back hog tying. At least hog tying doesn't kill people.

Investigators say when they arrived, they noticed multiple bite wounds on the father, including some to his face.
In a press conference held Thursday morning on Zoom, attorneys say the teen was having an autism-related meltdown.

The lawsuit alleges the responding deputy and others were made aware of the teen’s disability. Despite that, attorneys say once the 16-year-old was in handcuffs, at least two deputies sat on him for nine minutes and six seconds.

The incident happened on Jan. 19, 2020. Deputies say they responded to a call for help, accusing the teen of violently attacking his 53-year-old father outside of Laser Tag on Veterans Memorial Boulevard in Metairie.
I wonder who called the cops?
If a bystander they probably stayed to record everything

There are appropriate ways to restrain people without hog tying and without sitting on them for 9 minutes.

Jeff parish sheriff’s office released a statement saying basically frick off you’re lying. This should get interesting.

You're right. They should have shot him.

Please tell us more.
20 years ago they would have beat him with a billy club. Now we have tazers and soft methods.
We need law enforcement to hurry up with the introduction of the spiderman net and stuff.

I have defended a few positional asphyxia hog tie cases.

"The Jefferson Parish Sheriff’s Office does not generally publicly respond to matters regarding active litigation. The Sheriff’s Office, however, is compelled to respond to the lawsuit filed today in the Eastern District of Louisiana titled Parsa v. Sheriff Joseph P. Lopinto, III, et al.
While the Sheriff’s Office understands that all deaths are cause for sadness and a time for grieving, this lawsuit is rife with false claims and malicious accusations against the first responding deputies.
This case centers on a severely autistic teenager diagnosed with numerous other mental conditions which caused him to have frequent violent outbursts. The teenager violently attacked his father in a Jefferson Parish parking lot. The teenager beat and bit his own father, causing significant visible bloody injuries. A bystander called the Sheriff’s Office to respond to the scene.
Once deputies arrived, they tried to control the violent teenager’s outbursts to prevent him from again attacking his parents and first responders. Deputies allowed the teenager’s mother constant access to remain close to her son on the scene so that she could help first responders in defusing her son’s violent behavior.

While the Sheriff’s Office remains deeply saddened over this unfortunate loss of life, it does not intend to allow Jefferson Parish Sheriff’s Deputies to be maligned and slandered by those seeking to profit from this unfortunate situation. The Sheriff’s Office will timely respond to these matters as requested by the Court."

Bet you couldn't restrain a 130lbs female for any length of time let alone a super-strong autistic kid throwing a fit. And don't come at me with the cops have "training." Anything useful has been disallowed and looked down upon by soy cucks like you. I seriously doubt the cops physically sat on the kid and it's an exaggeration. Most likely a knee or laid prone on him to try to restrain.

JPSO issuing a public statement like that, they better be right.

Autism isn’t an excuse for a person to get treated differently in a situation where they can be a danger to another person.
