The hog-tie was not proceeded by a medical assessment, and the jailers did nothing to determine whether it was safe to hog-tie a person in Royston’s condition and leave them unattended. 28. Between 6:28 a.m. and 6:45 a.m., Johnson, Peden, Prentice and Brauer believed that Royston was striking her head on against the concrete in the isolation cell. 29. Despite believing that Royston shad suffered a head strike against the concrete, none of the jailers attempted to assess Royston for a head injury, determine whether she sustained a head injury, or called for a medical assessment. 30. Instead, at 6:45 a.m., Johnson, Pedan, Prentice and Murray entered the isolation cell and put Rebecca in a football helmet so she wouldn’t strike her head again while still in the hog-tie."
