Adolf Hitler would be proud of fascist terrorist pig thug cop brutality.
OAKLAND, Kalifornia (PNN) - November 28, 2012 - A war veteran who claims he was falsely arrested, beaten, and almost died due to neglect in an Oakland prison has launched legal action against the jail, claiming his pleas for help were ignored.
Kayvan Sabeghi, 33, was arrested during an Occupy rally in Oakland, Kalifornia, in November last year. Video footage shows him being beaten with batons and he suffered a lacerated spleen, which his attorney Dan Siegel says almost killed him after he was left without treatment for 18 hours in prison.
Siegel estimated damages in the case will be upwards of $1 million but said his main aim was to change the practices at the jail. “The greater concern that he has is that there be some changes at the jail. It’s a big problem that the county has privatized health services in a public jail and that the company that’s doing it is more concerned about making money than providing quality care.”
A private company, Corizon, is hired by the prison authorities to take care of the medical needs of prisoners at Glenn Dyer. Corizon is named as one of the defendants in the lawsuit, along with the county of Alameda Sheriff Gregory Ahern and pig thug cop at the county sheriff’s office.
On arrival at the prison Sabeghi told medical officers that he had been beaten by terrorist pig thug cops and he offered to show them his injuries.
Corizon staff are accused of refusing to look at Sabeghi’s injuries.
The lawsuit claims that his condition deteriorated and that despite showing severe distress and vomiting, Sabeghi did not receive treatment for 18 hours and was mocked by pig thug prison guards who dismissed his suffering as heroin withdrawal symptoms. It further claims that one pig thug guard filmed Sabeghi as he lay on the floor in agony and vomiting.
By the time his friends posted his bail, at 2:00 pm the following day, he was so ill he could not lift himself from the concrete floor of his cell. Four hours later his friends came to the prison to get him out and an ambulance was called.
The lawsuit further claims that a medical staffer did take Sabeghi’s blood pressure but reported, wrongly, that he was a diabetic and alcoholic and sought no further treatment for him.
But the authorities in Oakland have rejected the claims. Sgt JD Nelson, a spokesman for the terrorist outlaw sheriff’s office, denied any mistreatment and insisted video footage would show pig thug cops promptly assisting Sabeghi and arranging an examination. “As his condition worsened, we got an ambulance there,” said Nelson.
Yet Siegel responded that it was clear to other prisoners that Sabeghi was in genuine distress and they asked guards to get help but were ignored.
He added, “Contrary to what the sheriff department’s spokesperson said, it was not the case that they responded with any urgency. They only took it seriously when his friends bailed him out and he was unable to leave.
“He came close to dying. His doctors said so. He had a ruptured spleen and he was bleeding internally, which is why he got progressively weaker.”
Sabeghi served tours as a ranger in Afghanistan and Iraq and is no longer in the army. On his return to civilian life he ran a bar in Oakland for a time but has since given up on that.
He has said he was not participating in the Occupy rally the day he was arrested, but merely trying to get home when he was confronted by terrorist bastard pig thug cops in riot gear. When he refused to change direction he was beaten.
