Contractors Attack Journalist!!! Schenectady County Jail - $562,500 Federal Lawsuit Settlement

On August 30th, 2023 I was peacefully exercising our First Amendment right (Freedom of the Press) and the New Yorkers Right to Monitor Act at the Schenectady County Office of the Sheriff and Correctional Facility in Schenectady, New York.

A pair of former Schenectady County corrections officers, who were fired for their involvement in an unjustified beating of a detainee that resulted in the county paying out a more than $500,000 legal settlement last year, pleaded guilty to their role in the incident in February of this year (2023).

But the pair will not serve any state prison time under a plea agreement reached with the judge overseeing the case.

Prosecutors said, on November 9th, 2020, Correctional Officer, Eugene Sellie, attacked an inmate while he was detained at the Schenectady county jail following a court proceeding in Niskayuna Town Court.

While at the jail, the inmate was brought into an unsupervised room, where he was beaten by Sellie, an attack that resulted in multiple injuries. He was then released with no medical attention, and collapsed on the sidewalk outside the jail, where he was discovered by a probation officer and transported to Ellis Hospital.

Correctional Sergeant Timothy Bruce, heard the beating unfold but did not intervene, according to prosecutors. Both officers were terminated.

Last year, the county settled a federal lawsuit that had sought $2.5 million in damage, agreeing to payout $562,500.
