New York correctional officers pummeled handcuffed man before death, footage shows

> “We don’t need to watch this footage to know what it reveals: generations of encouraged, calculated cruelty and abuse of power that fester and metastasize behind the blue wall of silence.”

> “For every instance caught on camera, countless more acts of violence and murder in prisons are ignored, justified, or covered up,”

New York correction officers pummeled prisoner before death, footage shows

Newly released body camera footage shows that a man fatally beaten in a New York prison this month was repeatedly pummeled by correctional officers while in handcuffs. Robert Brooks was pronounced dead Dec. 10. The 43-year-old was assaulted the day before at the Marcy Correctional Facility in Oneida County. Footage of the encounter was made public by New York State Attorney General Letitia James on Friday. She called the officers' actions “shocking and disturbing.” They show correctional officers punching and kicking Brooks as he lies on a medical examination table, then yanking him up by his neck and dropping him. An attorney for Brooks didn't immediately respond to a request for comment.
