A Texas sheriff’s office has released a more than 40-minute video related to the death of a Black man, who died after a struggle with detention officers. The release came 2 weeks after a grand jury declined to indict 8 jailers involved in the death.

The March 14 footage contains no sound and was given to NBC News with the faces blurred. The sheriff's office said in an email that the faces were"intentionally blurred" and the lack of sound is because the jail's camera system does not record audio.

The video begins with the jailers opening Scott's cell in the booking area. It appears that they try to remove his arm from an opening in the cell door. After freeing his arm, they walk Scott to a holding room and place him on a restraint bed. For about 20 minutes, first responders and nurses try to revive Scott, the video shows. He's eventually placed on a stretcher and taken to a hospital, where he was later pronounced dead.

The faces were blurred becouse the cameras don't record audio? 🙄

Surprised they even bothered taking this to a grand jury rather than promoting the detention officers.

Not because of lack of access. Rather due to our system being rigged. This is a none issue. The issue is how broken our system has become. Voting can't change that. Its fundamentally rigged. Which makes it impossible for voters to influence change The Republicans are trying to do all that DC is corrupt. Why do you think so many are moving to Texas? Feet voting can’t be stolen.
