A protective order was sought and received by the Sheriff Office's attorneys late Wednesday afternoon. Christianson was unavailable for comment but apparently the posting of the video by Voice of Modesto, along with the discussion of related documents connected to the case on the Morning Mayor Show, has the Sheriff and his attorneys extremely concerned.
The Prescott attorney Stephen Yourke was on the Morning Mayor Show Friday, November 19th and can be heard in the archives at www.blogtalkradio.com/Morning-MayorAfter watching the video, most people become aware of Craig Prescott's comatose condition and the rough uncaring manner in which the deputies treated him.Apparent in the video are several scenes which are repeated over and over by what is supposed to be a factual unaltered footage.
Also of concern are the twelve pages of the CFMG Medical referral form along with the seventeen page District Attorney's report.The Sheriff's Department is desperately trying to conducting damage control.
Sheriff Adam Christianson's claim of "everything was by the book" is drawing more skepticism with every viewing of the video.
Can they put the genie back in the bottle?We here at the Voice of Modesto doubt it.
