- Police Brutality Watch

A Black man beaten by a police officer during a televised arrest has been transferred to a state facility to await a parole hearing. Stanley Miller complained of dizziness upon arrival at the Department of Corrections prison in Chino on Monday night and was moved to a hospital facility for observation, said prison spokesman Sgt. Arioma Sams. One of Miller's attorneys claimed his client has displayed "classic signs of brain damage" from the beating last week. Richard Nussbaum complained Tuesday that the transfer makes it more difficult for Miller to get an outside medical review and treatment lawyers have sought on his behalf. "Ever since he was put into Central (Jail), we've been asking for the medical care he deserves," said Nussbaum, who is preparing a civil lawsuit on Miller's behalf. "We've been told that he's not entitled to be visited by anyone." Police said Miller was given a complete medical examination and characterized his injuries as minor. [more]
