In the wake of theories that Sandra Bland and her death by hanging while in custody, Waller County, Texas, authorities have released new video footage. In the video, Bland is shown in the booking area taking her mug shot photos. This is in response to social media speculation that Bland was dead when her mug shot was taken.
Despite the release of the video, the police have not yet given a reason as to why she was arrested in the first place. There are numerous violations that occurred during her arrest and incarceration that still must be answered. From the arresting officer to jail personal the focus should be on why these violations were allowed to occur. The story has gone from an obvious unlawful arrest to the conspiracy that she was dead in the mug shot to show video evidence contrary to the social media narrative. There are factors that are already in evidence that have contributed to the controversy surrounding her death.
