A federal judge rejected the claim that Grenada police officers should be protected by qualified immunity in the 2018 death of Robert Loggins in the local jail.

The ruling by U.S. District Judge Sharion Aycock moves the case one step closer to trial in Mississippi.

A video obtained by the Mississippi Center of Investigative Reporting at Mississippi Today shows Loggins rolling when officers and jailers piled on top of him inside the Grenada County Jail. It also shows an officer kneeling on his neck. You can watch the full video on MCIR’s YouTube channel here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MW_9Yf4e-wk
