The Arlington Police Department says it’s still investigating the death of 42-year-old Jonathan Paul, who was found unresponsive in his jail cell in early March. But a wrongful-death lawsuit filed in federal court Wednesday blames his death on detention officers who “are believed to have used excessive and undue force by physically restraining Jonathan Paul around the neck and compressing his airways, which caused him to stop breathing.”
There’s no disputing what landed him behind bars: Paul was arrested around 4:30 a.m. March 9, after officers were dispatched on a disturbance call to his apartment complex just east of the University of Texas at Arlington campus. Witnesses said that among other things, Paul was yelling at people who weren’t there and throwing things out of an upstairs window. Officers arrested him after they discovered he had numerous outstanding warrants.
Three days after his arrest, police released a statement saying that Paul had been found unresponsive in his jail cell. Officials said that even after his arrest Paul remained “non-compliant and agitated,” and that he was restrained and placed against his will in an isolation cell in the Arlington City Jail. Eventually, police said, officers found him “unresponsive” in his cell, at which point EMS was called and Paul was transported to intensive care at Arlington Memorial Hospital, where he was died on March 13.

“Upon information and believe, the unconstitutional or inadequate policies and customs implemented at Arlington City Jail caused Jonathan Paul’s injuries and deprived him of the minimally necessary medical care to have saved his life while he was incarcerated in Arlington City Jail as a pretrial detainee,” says the lawsuit. “Moreover, the inadequate supervision of the unknown Officer resulted in the Plaintiff’s injury and death and/or was constitutionally inadequate to safeguard his rights.”
Police have said there is video from inside the cell, but that it won’t be released until the investigation is completed. An Arlington Police Department spokesperson said Thursday morning that “the investigation has not yet been concluded,” and that the department has not yet been served with the suit. The Tarrant County Medical Examiner says the cause of death is still pending. … [visit site to read more]
