But it’s important to do so. While watching, I wondered: If body cam footage didn’t exist, would five officers still have been charged with second-degree murder? In the months leading up to the release of the Nichols footage last week, I watched another brutal video, one that captures a very different set of circumstances but the same failure of people in power to do their duty to protect. In the filmmaker Sam Mirpoorian’s “Safe Place,” [which we published today,](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRlu5YkP0TnaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vMjAyMy8wMS8zMS9vcGluaW9uL2plcm9kLWRyYXBlci1qYWlsLWRlYXRoLWluZGlhbmEuaHRtbD9jYW1wYWlnbl9pZD0zOSZlbWM9ZWRpdF90eV8yMDIzMDEzMSZpbnN0YW5jZV9pZD04NDEyNCZubD1vcGluaW9uLXRvZGF5JnJlZ2lfaWQ9Nzc2NzQ5NTImc2VnbWVudF9pZD0xMjM5OTcmdGU9MSZ1c2VyX2lkPWFhNDkxZWY3ZjFkOTY0ZTQ5NzlmYjc4NGU3NGUwMWQ3VwNueXRCCmPTJBHZYwJLueRSG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAAA~~) you’ll see a series of intense scenes where Jerod Draper dies of what has officially been termed an “[acute methamphetamine overdose](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRlu5YkP0TzaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuZG9jdW1lbnRjbG91ZC5vcmcvZG9jdW1lbnRzLzIxMDcwNDg0LWhhcnJpc29uLWNvdW50eS1kcmFwZXItc3RhdGVtZW50LW9mLWNsYWltcz9jYW1wYWlnbl9pZD0zOSZlbWM9ZWRpdF90eV8yMDIzMDEzMSZpbnN0YW5jZV9pZD04NDEyNCZubD1vcGluaW9uLXRvZGF5JnJlZ2lfaWQ9Nzc2NzQ5NTImc2VnbWVudF9pZD0xMjM5OTcmdGU9MSZ1c2VyX2lkPWFhNDkxZWY3ZjFkOTY0ZTQ5NzlmYjc4NGU3NGUwMWQ3VwNueXRCCmPTJBHZYwJLueRSG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAAA~~).” But that claim glosses over the events leading up to his death. Draper was detained in a jail in Harrison County, Ind., when a corrections officer and nurse used a Taser on him seven times in 15 minutes. Officers say they believed Draper was a danger to himself and had placed him in medical isolation wearing a suicide smock. They say the Taser was used in an attempt to make Draper comply with commands from the officers. Those 50,000 volts of electricity surged into Draper while his face was covered by a spit hood, which visibly filled with blood. All four of his limbs were tied down in a restraining chair as he was jolted with electricity again and again. He was naked. He couldn’t move. And then he died. Draper hadn’t even been charged with a crime yet. The shockingly inhumane event was captured on a CCTV camera in the jail. I’ve watched the footage dozens of times. The images continue to haunt me. But we felt that they were important to share because no criminal investigation came from Draper’s death. A county prosecutor reviewed the CCTV video and declined to file charges against those involved. If horrifying video doesn’t trigger accountability, what does? That’s the question Mirpoorian raises in the film. This CCTV footage, along with deposition hearings and interviews with Draper’s family, friends and lawyers and journalists who reported on the incident, shines a light on the devastating consequences of authorities’ failure to protect people in their custody, even those who are supposedly in a safe place.
