We're the Only Ones Not Trained to Do Our Jobs Enough

"Forty percent of them (inmates) have serious mental problems and we're dealing with them from a law enforcement point of view, we're not trained to deal with them mentally." said Summit County Sheriff Drew Alexander, who neither condemned nor condoned his deputies' actions.

Why aren't you trained if that's your responsibility and you're accepting paychecks? And how much training do you need to know you're not supposed to gang up and beat a man to death?

Wonder why nobody has mentioned the moral deficiencies of the charged.

I sincerely hope the community supports the rights of these men, as inmates in the state prison.
