“These allegations are the definition of scandalous,’’ accord to a new federal court filing made public Friday.
“This case embodies the adage, ‘A lie is halfway around the world before the truth can put on its boots,’’' lawyers wrote.
Attorneys for the sheriff’s office Friday responded to the lawsuit and filed the motion to strike the freezer allegations from the initial complaint. “Indeed, plaintiff’s counsels in their media blitz appeared on CNN and admitted that they do not have proof that Mitchell was placed in a freezer,” the response states, “yet they deliberately included these patently false and explosive allegations.’’The plaintiffs should also be required to attorney fees and costs, the motion continued.
SWAT officers, Alabama Department of Corrections tracking dogs and a helicopter were deployed to the scene. One video showed Mitchell being dragged, naked, across the floor by officers, according to the family’s suit. Another, from January 15, two days after he was taken to jail, shows him being tased, naked, by a group of officers in the doorway of his isolation cell, the family’s suit says.
