Deputy Richard Hathaway – Multnomah County Sheriff’s Office

Written by CBKN76

In September 2006, Deputy Hathaway was involved in an incident where he allegedly used excessive force during the booking of Michael Evans. Evans claimed that Hathaway and another deputy physically assaulted him without provocation, leading to a lawsuit alleging excessive force and assault. The case, Evans v. Multnomah County, was filed in 2007 and highlighted concerns about the use of force during inmate processing.
