  • The defense called an expert witness on force who testified that six shocks with a Taser was not excessive when dealing with someone who will not follow orders.

    Ray Nash, a former sheriff in Dorchester County, testified that the inmate’s violence against his father likely led Lemon to think the Taser was the only option to subdue him.

    So, not for being violent or even disorderly or something. Got spikes in him and electrocuted 6 times for being stubborn.

    The deputy who shocked the inmate on Lemon’s order pleaded guilty to a federal charge earlier this year and testified against the sheriff. He will be sentenced at a later date.

    And the employee takes the fall for the manager.
