The danger of being deaf
|
| |
California, USA (Modbee): Harry Tessien, a pizza deliveryman who has been deaf for 25 years, saw flashing police lights. He pulled over in front of City Tire Sales, after a pursuit that lasted eight-tenths of a mile. Then he was pelted with nylon beanbags, which contain 40 grams of lead shot and are meant to stun a suspect. […] Tessien alleges that the officers used excessive force and violated the Americans With Disabilities Act by not providing him with a qualified sign language interpreter after he was taken into custody.
