    I grew up in this area and this needs national attention. They’ve gotten away with things like this for far too long.

    >The Sheriff’s Office spokesperson, according to the suit, told the family they’d get him medical help in Walker County Jail. **Instead, guards tased Mitchell and locked him in a freezer, killing him**, the suit alleges. The suit filed Monday also contends jail leadership began a cover up of Mitchell’s death hours before he died.

    That is straight up murder, there is no defense that the guards were simply performing their jobs not to 100% standards. People make mistakes, locking someone in a freezer and covering it up is not a mistake, that is murder.
