Shocking body-worn camera footage from a New York prison shows guards violently beating inmate Robert Brooks shortly before his death. The recording shows Brooks, who was serving a 12-year sentence, being restrained and assaulted. Attorney General Letitia James released the video to ensure transparency, while Governor Kathy Hochul condemned the incident, emphasizing the state’s stance against police brutality. Brooks’ family expressed devastation over witnessing the final moments of his life. A preliminary autopsy indicates the cause of death was asphyxia due to neck compression.
