The mother of a Black man who died in police custody at a Virginia mental hospital says her son was “brilliant, creative and bright.”.
Otieno, who was 28, came to the U.S. from Kenya at the age of 4 but he “was as American as apple pie,” his mother said.
She added that Otieno wasn’t afraid to offer different perspectives in conversations, to go the other way “when everybody else is following.” Mark Krudys, one of Ouko's attorneys, said that Otieno was experiencing a mental health crisis at the time. He said a neighbor called police over concerns about him gathering lawn lights from a yard.
Added Krudys: “She was imploring them treat him appropriately, bring him to a hospital. And he was vacuumed into the criminal justice system, for which there was no care that was provided, that we saw.”
