Episode 38 takes a disturbing look at systemic abuse and injustice through the eyes of Eugene, a lifelong Ironton resident. Eugene recounts his harrowing 2015 arrest, where police officers barged into his home without cause, immediately cuffing him tightly with two pairs of handcuffs despite no evidence of a crime.
The officers' excessive force caused severe bruising around Eugene's wrists as they transported him in an inhumane manner - laying him contorted in the backseat of the police cruiser for over an hour. Once at the jail, Eugene describes being subjected to dehumanizing strip searches and being threatened with "punishment" if he didn't follow degrading commands.
Despite a complete lack of evidence, Eugene was charged with felony harboring of a fugitive. In a shocking violation of due process, he was denied a jury trial and found guilty by a judge, levied fines and probation. Eugene calls out the prosecutor and judge by name for this travesty of justice.
With raw honesty, he expresses his outrage at the system's abuse, inhumane conditions in the jail, and lack of accountability. Eugene's first-hand account exposes the normalization of cruel practices and disregard for constitutional rights by law enforcement in Ironton. His powerful story shines a light on the desperate need for reform and oversight.
