00:00A new disturbing surveillance video showing Ivo Otieno's last hours in police custody before
00:05being pronounced dead at the hospital has just been released. In previously released surveillance
00:10footage from a psychiatric hospital, a group of police officers and medical staff employees are
00:15seen pinning down Otieno, a 28-year-old man with a history of mental illness. The new footage,
00:21which was taken hours before the hospital surveillance video, shows Otieno inside his
00:25jail cell. After he seems to refuse clothing given to him, a group of officers rush into
00:30his cell. It is during this altercation that surveillance video appears to show officers
00:34resort to physical violence. After 14 minutes, Otieno's limp body is carried outside his cell
00:40and he is loaded into a transport van where he is then taken to a psychiatric hospital
00:44approximately 50 miles away. After arriving at Central State Hospital in Virginia, police
00:48officers and medical staff piled on top of Otieno for roughly 11 minutes and he was asphyxiated in
00:54the process. Ten people have been charged with second-degree murder of Otieno, including
00:58seven deputies and three hospital employees.
