In a recent court filing, LaDana Johnson, acting as the guardian of her son Michael Duncan, has filed a lawsuit against the United States of America. The case, filed under the Federal Tort Claims Act (FTCA), arises from an incident at the Federal Transfer Center in Oklahoma City where Duncan sustained severe injuries while in custody. The complaint alleges that Duncan was brutally beaten by Bureau of Prisons (BOP) officials while restrained, resulting in permanent incapacitation. Johnson claims that BOP staff failed to provide necessary monitoring and medical care for Duncan, who was already vulnerable due to psychological evaluations. The lawsuit seeks compensatory damages for negligence, assault and battery, and failure to supervise and train staff adequately.
