    On January 1, 2019, Deputy Jorge Sobrino punched a handcuffed suspect, David O’Connell, who was restrained to a hospital bed. The incident was captured on body camera footage. An internal affairs investigation found Sobrino violated multiple BSO policies, including Use of Force and Conformity to Laws. Initially, a 30-day suspension was recommended, but Sheriff Gregory Tony terminated Sobrino on October 29, 2019. Sobrino faced a pending misdemeanor battery charge related to the incident.

Why This Matters

By organizing this data, we can potentially demonstrate when officers were previously aware of laws they later claim ignorance of, challenging qualified immunity defenses and promoting accountability.
