Veteran Jonathan Montano was brutally beaten to death by VA police in Loma Linda, CA for trying to leave the hospital after waiting 4 hours with a needle in his arm.
His widow recently filed suit. The couple had been married for 44 years.
“The summoned VA Police Department police officers then stopped Jonathan Montano from leaving the VA Hospital in Loma Linda, by tackling him to the floor, slamming his head on the floor, and kneeing and stomping on his neck, and otherwise brutalizing and restraining him,” the lawsuit said.

UNACCEPTABLE……..
This is unexcuseable under any circumstance. He was not a threat to anyone else. VA cops should be prosecuted to the extent of the law.
Wow
terribel
It’s not fair. The Vet has right’s. Sounds like the police. Have no respect for Vets at all. I hope the cop will be held accountable for this crime.
Its all about control!
I waited 4 1/2 hour in a pre op room by myself at the VA in White River Vermont before I finally yelled at the staff and walked out. The VA is a sham.
Wait for the investigation. Get all from both sides before judging.
What a ridiculous situation. I think that the nurse who called for the police should also be included in the proceedings. If she hadn’t tried to stop the man, who was well within his rights to leave, he would still be alive. She is the one who started the entire situation and should be held accountable.
