A Mississippi sheriff repeatedly freed a woman's abusive husband from jail on weekends, and the man tried to run her over, beat her unconscious and then drenched her body with sulfuric acid, the woman says in a lawsuit.
The former Webster County sheriff, Tim Mitchell has since been arrested on unrelated corruption charges involving guns, drugs and sex with inmates. He resigned earlier this month after pleading guilty.Robinson says Mitchell never should have allowed her husband, Daren Patterson, to be freed on weekends to terrorize her. Patterson ultimately poured"Liquid Fire" drain cleaner on her, burning her face, neck, chest, arms, and leg, her lawyer wrote in the lawsuit.
"Occasionally, Mrs. Robinson would stand up for herself," it said."Often, though, she would assume the position of his punching bag." The then-sheriff later designated Patterson a"trusty" at the jail, which gave him special privileges. He allowed Patterson to be released on weekends even after Robinson told police that her husband tried to run her over with the car the first time he was freed for the weekend, the lawsuit alleges. The Eupora Police Department investigated that event, wrote a report about it"and informed Sheriff Mitchell accordingly," the lawsuit states.
