TAMPA, Fla. (AP) - A Hillsborough County deputy who was
videotaped dumping a paralyzed man out of his wheelchair onto a
jailhouse floor has turned herself in.
Jail records show Charlette Marshall-Jones was booked into the
Orient Road Jail in Tampa early Saturday morning.
It is the same jail where Marshall-Jones worked. She is accused
of tipping 32-year-old Brian Sterner out of his wheelchair. A
videotape of the incident has been widely circulated.
The 44-year-old was charged with one count of felony abuse of a
disabled person and released after posting $3,500 bail. A phone
message left with an attorney listed in jail records was not
immediately returned Saturday.
Hillsborough County Sheriff David Gee called the incident a
"disgrace" Friday and vowed to continue his agency's
investigation.
