Deputy Abernathy was named in a 2021 federal lawsuit alleging excessive force. The plaintiff, Mr. Jones, claims that Abernathy, along with other deputies, beat him during an incident at his home. The lawsuit asserts that the officers used force maliciously and sadistically to cause harm, violating Jones’s Fourth Amendment rights. The case was reviewed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Alabama. ([casetext.com](https://casetext.com/case/jones-v-cnty-of-limestone?utm_source=openai))
