“The agency takes all allegations of inappropriate use of force by JSO officers seriously,” the sheriff's office said. The sheriff's office said it couldn't comment any further because the incident was being investigated. The video released by Woods' attorney, Harry Daniels, shows at least three officers on top of Woods, who is chest-down on grass besides a car. After he is handcuffed, Woods is propped up against an officer's legs, seemingly unable to sit up on his own. Online records show that Woods was being held in custody on Sunday on charges of armed traffic of methamphetamine, armed traffic of cocaine, armed possession of a controlled substance, resisting an officer with violence and violation of probation, among other charges.
