TL;DR Summary

Newly released surveillance video shows a group of law enforcement officers in Virginia enter Irvo Otieno’s cell in the Henrico County Jail, and at least one appears to throw several punches in an encounter just hours before Otieno’s death at a mental hospital. Otieno, a 28-year-old Black man, died at Central State Hospital as sheriff’s deputies from Henrico County and hospital staff piled on him for approximately 11 minutes on March 6, according to video released earlier this week by Dinwiddie County Commonwealth’s Attorney Ann Cabell Baskervill.
