ALABAMA MAN SUING THE POLICD AFTER ALLEGEDLY HAVING A HAND AMPUTATED DUE TO BEING IMPROPERLY HANDCUFFED.(PHOTO)


 Alabama man suing the Jefferson County Sheriff's office after allegedly having a hand amputated due to being improperly handcuffed. 


Giovanni Loyola claims police cuffed him for no reason initially and then left him cuffed for many hours, ignoring his pleas to loosen the cuffs. Giovanni's doctors agree his amputation was completely a direct result from hours of zero blood circulation. 


The incident occurred in February of 2020 when police were called to Loyola's mothers home to reports of shots fired. Loyola said he was in the home watching TV when police knocked on the door. He claims he answered and told them he hadn't fired any shots and was watching TV.


This is where deputies and Loyolas version of events differ. Loyola claims Deputy Goodbar reached into his home and dragged him out. Once outside, he was slammed to the ground and repeatedly struck in the face. He was then handcuffed much too tightly and left that way until processed into the jail. Loyola claims repeated requests to loosen them were ignored.


Deputy Goodbar claims Loyla was combative and drunk and he was forced to slam him to the ground and punch him before cuffing him. Goodbar's body cam was disabled and his partners was blocked. However it should be noted all charges against Loyla were dropped by the prosecutor. 


There is some audio in which Loyla can be heard saying, "I ain't resisting, why ya'll acting like this?" Later you hear many  complaints that  the handcuffs hurt, to which Goodbar replied, "well thats what happens when you f---- with the police." 


Reportedly, Deputy Goodbar seemed scared and shocked when he heard there was audio captured even though the body cams were either disabled or blocked.


Four days after his arrest Loyla's fingers were becoming black and he went to the hospital. This led to 3 fingers being amputated first but ultimately his entire left hand had to be amputated. 


Jefferson County Sheriff's Office has refused to speak on the matter. Attorneys representing them did ask the judge to toss out the lawsuit and were denied.


It's important to know, Loyla had all charges dropped and was found innocent of all accusations.
