Sheriff Kevin Ledbetter was named in a lawsuit filed by a pretrial detainee alleging excessive force and inadequate medical care during his arrest and detention in October 2023. The plaintiff claimed that deputies used excessive force, resulting in severe injuries, and that Ledbetter, as a supervisor, was liable for the deputies’ actions. The court found that the plaintiff failed to state a plausible claim against Ledbetter due to lack of specific allegations regarding his personal involvement.
