Iran Press/ America: Family and attorneys see "brutal treatment" meted out to 28-year-old Irvo Otieno in footage, a case that marks the latest example of a Black man's in-custody death in America.
Video from a state mental hospital shows a Black Virginia man who was handcuffed and shackled being pinned to the ground by deputies who are now facing second-degree murder charges in his death, according to relatives of the man and their attorneys who viewed the footage.
Speaking at a news conference shortly after watching the video on Thursday, the family and attorneys condemned the brutal treatment they said Irvo Otieno, 28, was subjected to, first at a local jail and then at the state hospital where he died on March 6.
They called on the US Department of Justice to intervene in the case, saying Otieno's constitutional rights were clearly violated. 219
