WILLIAMSON COUNTY, Texas — A man whose June 2019 arrest was broadcast on "Live PD" is suing Williamson County, former Sheriff Robert Chody and the five deputies involved in the arrest for excessive force and assault. The lawsuit also asserts claims for negligence and civil conspiracy against A&E Network and Big Fish Entertainment, the powers behind "Live PD."
The plaintiff, Ramsey Mitchell, was arrested in Williamson County on June 14, 2019. The lawsuit alleges that Mitchell was "brutally assaulted" by deputies after he was pulled over for allegedly missing a front license plate.
