Seven Henrico County Sheriff's deputies have been charged with second-degree murder in connection with the in-custody death of Irvo Otieno at Central State Hospital in Dinwiddie County, Virginia. Otieno died of asphyxiation, according to the Dinwiddie County Commonwealth’s Attorney. Two videos, one from Henrico County Jail and another from Central State Hospital, are being reviewed by the State Medical Examiner. The seven deputies charged did not assist Otieno in the aftermath, moved his body, removed his restraints, and waited three hours to call Virginia State Police to investigate.

Seven Henrico County Sheriff's deputies have been charged with second-degree murder after a video showed the deliberate and cruel treatment of 28-year-old Irvo Otieno, who was smothered to death by the weight of the deputies on top of him.
