Three high-profile civil rights attorneys, including Ben Crump, have been added to the legal team representing the family of Jawan Dallas, who contend Mobile police are responsible for the 36-year-old unarmed Black man’s death after being tased twice.
after being tased twice.
Burris was the lawyer for Rodney King’s civil case against the city of Los Angeles and represented the family of Oscar Grant, whose death at the hands of a transit officer in Oakland in 2009 was the subject of the film “Fruitvale Station.” Daniels also claimed the witness said Dallas fell to the ground after the first tasing, grabbed his chest and complained of chest pains, but “officers tased him again until he stopped moving,” according to a statement released by the law firm.
“One of the individuals complied with the officers and gave the officers his identification card,” Prine said on Friday. “The second individual was identified as Jawan Dallas, who was sitting in the driver’s seat of a vehicle. The officers inquired several times for Mr. Dallas’s identification card. He continued to evade the question, did not give the identification card to the officers.”
Prine said Dallas was later found to have drugs — crystal methamphetamine and analog marijuana, also known as spice.
