“Disturbing” body-cam footage confirms ER patient killed by deputy was in leg irons, lawsuit claims.
At that point, the man who shot Wright –by Hays County D.A. Kelly Higgins for deadly conduct in April however and lost his job shortly thereafter.
The lawsuit against Garcia goes into considerable detail about how he killed Wright. According to the complaint, Wright ran from the officer after using the restroom when his handcuffs had been removed but not his leg shackles. Instead of chasing Wright down and using his Taser to subdue him, Garcia shot twice at him. After bullets tore through his arms, Wright struggled to his feet and Garcia shot him again, this time through his chest, breaking two of his ribs.
"Wright was not in any position to escape from the hospital as he was in a hospital hallway with no exit in his immediate vicinity to use," the lawsuit reads."In fact, Garcia could have really caught up to him and restrained him. … Yet, rather than physically restraining the bleeding, downed, and unsteady Wright or use his TASER to do so, Garcia fired his gun twice in quick succession into Wright's back.
Beverly Wright released a statement through her attorneys in announcing the lawsuit."As a Black mother, I prayed my family would never be in the position we find ourselves in today," Wright said."The killing of Black men like my son by law enforcement remains all too common. It is past time for these officers to be held responsible."
