Sheriff Tommy Thomas Should Resign

How much more should we have to tolerate?

The Harris County Sheriff’s Office was slapped with a big civil rights lawsuit on Thursday. The five plaintiffs include the Ibarra brothers, a local business owner and a judge.

Business owner Loyd Henderson is one of the plaintiffs. His company’s own security camera captured an exchange between him and a Harris County sheriff’s deputy. The video shows Henderson behind the counter, reaching for his license when – without warning – the deputy grabs Henderson and shoves him against the counter and then onto the ground before handcuffing him.
