Quote:Oklahoma cops brutally abused and taunted black Army veteran — then left him to die in jail

Quote:“This guy went almost six days and never got taken to the hospital with a broken neck,” Daniel Smolen, his family’s attorney, told the Daily Beast. “They’re throwing food at him and making fun of him in the cell while he’s going through a horrific death.
