Simpson County deputy indicted for using excessive force against handcuffed arresteeย
SUMMARY: A Mississippi sheriff’s deputy, Adrian Durr, 43, has been indicted for using excessive force against a handcuffed arrestee. The incident involved Durr striking the detainee, who was shackled and restrained, with a taser’s handgrip and kicking him in the head, rendering him unconscious. Durr faces charges of deprivation of civil rights under color of law and could receive a maximum sentence of 10 years in prison if convicted. The FBI is investigating the case, emphasizing that such abuse erodes public trust in law enforcement, and it is unclear if Durr remains employed as a deputy.
