Authorities Used a Taser on Jerod Draper 7 Times in 15 Minutes — NYT Documentary

Attorney Larry Wilder is featured in the New York Times documentary Safe Place, which investigates the death of Jerod Draper inside the Harrison County Jail. Draper, who was restrained and tased multiple times before dying in custody, became the center of a civil rights case led by Wilder on behalf of his family. The film underscores Wilder’s argument that the tragedy exposes systemic failures in jail policies and accountability.
