Deputy Jordan Turner – Independence County Sheriff’s Office

In July 2017, Deputy Jordan Turner arrested Kelly Martin for driving while intoxicated after a single-car accident. Martin exhibited confusion and slurred speech, and her boyfriend informed Turner that she might have had a seizure. Despite this, Turner transported her to jail without seeking medical attention. Martin alleged that she suffered multiple seizures during her detention, leading to serious injuries. She filed a lawsuit against Turner, claiming deliberate indifference to her medical needs. The district court denied Turner’s motion for summary judgment based on qualified immunity, allowing the case to proceed.

Why This Matters
