Watch: Graphic Inmate's Fatal Beating by NY Officers Sparks Outrage
Newly released body camera footage sheds light on a fatal incident involving New York corrections officers and an inmate, Robert Brooks, who died the morning after the violent encounter at Marcy Correctional Facility. The disturbing footage appears to show Brooks, a 43-year-old inmate, subjected to a brutal assault while restrained. The cause of death, determined by preliminary examinations, was listed as "asphyxia due to compression of the neck." However, details about why Brooks was initially brought to the medical facility remain unclear, as the videos lack audio. The incident has drawn widespread condemnation. Following an internal review, New York Governor Kathy Hochul announced the termination of 13 officers and a prison nurse involved in the assault. In a statement, she expressed being "outraged and horrified" by the events. "The state of New York has zero tolerance for individuals who break the law, and I am committed to holding everyone involved fully accountable," Hochul said. Attorney General James, whose office has launched an investigation, acknowledged the gravity of releasing such footage. "I do not take lightly the release of this video, especially in the middle of the holiday season," James said. She emphasized the importance of transparency and accountability, stating, "I release the videos because I have a responsibility and duty to provide the Brooks family, their loved ones, and all New Yorkers with transparency and accountability." Brooks had been serving a 12-year sentence for first-degree assault and had been transferred to Marcy Correctional Facility from a nearby facility on the same day as the assault. Elizabeth Mazur, the attorney representing Brooks' family, described the footage as a harrowing depiction of excessive violence. "The videos show the horrific and extreme nature of the deadly attack," Mazur said. She further remarked, "He deserved to live, and everyone else living in Marcy Correctional Facility deserves to know they do not have to live in fear of violence at the hands of prison staff." The union representing state prison workers called the footage "incomprehensible," underscoring the shock felt across communities. The incident has reignited discussions on prison reform and the accountability of correctional staff in New York and beyond. Based on a report by the BBC 2024-12-28 -
