NEW HAVEN, Conn. — The five New Haven, Connecticut, police officers charged in the case of Randy Cox, a Black man who was paralyzed while being transported in custody, appeared in court for the first time Thursday.
They were expected to be arraigned but instead, the judge transferred their cases to New Haven County Court. The officers' next court appearance will be on Jan. 11, ABC local affiliate WTNH reported.
The officers -- Sgt. Betsy Segui and officers Oscar Diaz, Ronald Pressley, Jocelyn Lavandier and Luis Rivera -- were charged last week with second-degree reckless endangerment and cruelty to persons misdemeanors. Though Cox repeatedly asked for help, saying he couldn't move, the officers did not immediately render him medical aid and allegedly assumed he was drunk when they arrived at the police station.
Cox filed a $100 million federal lawsuit against the city of New Haven and New Haven Police Department officers in September.
