SUMMARY: The Rankin County Sheriff's Office is facing a new federal lawsuit alleging that “goon squad” Deputy Christian Dedmon and others tortured a man with a K-9. The lawsuit, filed on April 30, names Sheriff Bryan Bailey and Dedmon as defendants, among others. The incident occurred in 2021 when Bobbie Adams was allegedly bitten by a K-9 named Voodoo after being arrested for a meth sale. Adams claims he was already handcuffed and not resisting arrest when the dog attacked him, causing punctured wounds and bone dislocation. Adams, who is serving time for the sale of methamphetamines, is seeking justice through this lawsuit.

A man has filed a lawsuit claiming member of the Rankin County Sheriff's Department commanded a K9 to attack him after he was arrested.
