High There 👋

Suspect Derrick A. Price didn’t spit, didn’t kick, didn’t threaten. He knelt and then lay on the pavement, hands outstretched, when arrested by sheriff’s deputies in a community south of Ocala.

Then he was beaten.

“Stop resisting!” at least one deputy called out, as Price reacted to the blows.

Five ex-Marion County deputies now face possible prison terms. As they captured Price, video captured their conduct.

A federal grand jury in Tampa charged the last of the disgraced lawmen late Tuesday, accusing Jesse Alan Terrell, 33, of violating Price’s civil rights. Four of Terrell’s former colleagues had already pleaded guilty to the crime after accepting plea agreements.

Video showed what Marion Sheriff Chris Blair saw before suspending the deputies — without pay — four days after the Aug. 7, 2014, incident.

It captured deputies kneeing, kicking and pummeling a prostrate man, with no sign of resistance, while one sat on his legs. It showed a puddle of blood where his face had rested.

Price suffered facial abrasions, swelling and bruised ribs, but was not hospitalized.
