Family sues Federal Way after man dies in police custody

Today, the family of a Federal Way man who died in police custody filed a wrongful death lawsuit against the city, police department, and a hospital. The family of 27-year-old Leon Davis also released body camera video showing his final moments alive at St. Francis Hospital. Davis checked himself into the hospital March 14th for symptoms of alcohol withdrawal syndrome. When he became disoriented, the hospital called Federal Way police. Eight officers pinned him to the ground, which led to his death. Just reviewing the tape, there's no way that you could think that it was okay. What happened to him? No one deserves to be treated that way. I don't feel like they see him as a human being or a person. It's just sad to see, you know, he's my baby brother and to see these are his last moments. The medical examiner determined that the 25 minutes Davis was restrained led to a heart attack and the ME ruled his death a homicide. The police department told Fox 13 an independent agency is investigating Davis's death and the hospital told us he could not comment on litigation or specific patient details.
