On November 14, 2019, Deputy Kessling was involved in the pursuit and arrest of Chadwich Gable, who was being served with a warrant. Gable alleged that after falling and breaking his arm during the chase, Kessling and another deputy handcuffed him, pulled his pants down, and physically assaulted him while he was restrained. Gable also claimed that Kessling denied him immediate medical attention for his broken arm, instead transporting him directly to jail. Gable filed a lawsuit against Kessling and the Leon County Sheriff’s Office, alleging civil rights violations and seeking monetary relief exceeding $50,000. The outcome of the lawsuit is not specified in the available information.
