     At the Orient Road Jail, Charlette Marshall-Jones, or Deputy Devil (as appropriately nicknamed by blogger K1662), in an incident as ridiculous as it was brutal, dumped a prisoner, Brian Sterner, out of his wheelchair.  What made the incident worse was the lack of compassion shown by everyone else there. No one made any effort to help him. They just left him there. 

      To compound the evil even more, one fat supervisor laughed into the camera that recorded the incident.  I will never forget the sadistic look on his face as long as I live.  I reminds me of the cruel laughter of evil scientists in some of those old monster movies in which the monster is torturing his victim and laughing uproariously at her plight.  He is Supervisor Sadist as far as I am concerned. 

      I got very angry as I watched the incident.  I was born with a disability, although I am not in a wheelchair.  Growing up, I was constantly bullied, especially by one neighbor.  I know how that feels, so I have nothing but sympathy for Brian Sterner.  It does not matter why he was in the jail: None of those deputies did right by him.  First, he was bullied by Deputy Devil, and then laughed at by Supervisor Sadist.  No one helped him back into the chair that I saw.  Everyone around also used to have a good time at my expense when I was bullied. Outside of help from my family, only one time do I recall ever being helped with a bully.  That is not something I can forget.

     I don't care how high Supervisor Sadist's rank is in the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Department.  His callous behavior has disgraced his uniform.  If not fired, he should at least be demoted to several ranks lower than his present one.

     I must say that I am thankful that the Sheriff is not tolerating what was done.  He just needs to find decent corrections officers. 

     The quality of the officers employed of Orient Road Jail, as shown by their inhumane and cruel treatment of Brian Sterner, reminds me of another prison: Abu Garib.
