  • He was undergoing benzo withdrawal, which can be fatal, they didn't allow him his prescribed medicine and he died 100% the officers fault

  • R.I.P. Sean....Why the fk is this video on here?This is sad and truly disrespectful...

  • omg what in blue blazzez is this??????????

  • Its not right

  • i agree whoever put this up please take this shit down. the man has gone home and is finally at peace. this shit is fucked up to use the hell he was going threw as entertainment. show the levert family some respect.

  • ah man

  • I agree take it down who ever post this should be ahame gerald and sean family will see this on here i was looking for gerald levert song that i love and came across this video this video make's you cry you can tell he was sick please take this down show the levert family respect if not for them for gerald levert.

  • OMG!!! THIS IS HORRIBLE IN EVERY SENSE OF THE WORD. SOME PEOPLE IN UNIFORM ABUSE THEIR AUTHORITY. I HOPE THE HANDS THAT HELPED AGGRAVATE HIS CONDITION(S) AND THEREFORE CAUSED SEAN'S DEATH HAVE MANY SLEEPLESS NIGHTS. EVEN THOUGH HE WAS THERE (IN JAIL) FOR FAILURE TO PAY CHILD SUPPORT THIS WAS ABSOLUTELY UNNECESSARY! THERE IS A HISTORY OF EXCESSIVE FORCE ON INMATES ACROSS THE COUNTRY. I THINK "THEY" LOVE TO HUMILIATE BLACK STARS. "THEY" KNEW HE WAS SEAN LEVERT! GOD WILL PUNISH ALL INVOLVED!

  • THIS VIDEO NEEDS TO REMAIN ON HERE!!!!NOT TO DISGRACE SEAN. BUT RATHER JUST TO SO HOW DUMB DEAF AND BLIND ARE JUSTICE SYSTEM REALLY IS (ESPECIALLY THE CLEVELAND JUSTICE CENTER WHERE THIS WAS FILMED). THERE ARE SOO MANY MORE BEING GIVEN UNJUST "PUNISHMENT" FOR THEIR CONDITIONS WHEN THEY SHOULD BE GIVING JUST "TREATMENT" INSTEAD...

  • Da stupid idoits r just gonna stand there and watch!!! Really can't you see he's suffering. I hope they fired all of them!!!useless fucks!

  • Is this what killed him???

  • This was just so crazy to me! Hell they don't even lock down rapist and murderers like this! And all of those clowns with their face in the camera...how do you feel now? This was so sad!!!!!!

  • get this off youtobe

  • he was there for not paying child support and if you are having chest pains would you not yell for help and you see what happend HE DIED

  • If you don't want to be treated like this... don't do the stupid things that put you there. If the police had to go over the medical history of every crackhead, drunk, jaywalker, prostitute...you get the idea. YOU would be there a lot longer than you would want...

  • I have just watched this video and it broke my heart to see such a lovely man treated in such a way. I was a huge fan of the O'Jays and then of Levert these guys were wonderful and it saddens me that Seans life ended so tragically. this video must surely be very distressing for his family....

  • Them Low down bastards was wrong but may Sean Levert rest in Peace!

  • Everyone knows that he was not a violent man and he was sick, the jails need to look futher into peoples health history before just lockin them down like that. I feel it is their fault he is dead and they should pay for that.Love, Peace, Happiness to all God Bless ur family always n forever loved.

  • Thosefuckingcock suckers motherfuckers

  • RIP beautiful man, Sean. I disagree that this video should be taken down. Leave it up, so everybody can see how people are treated in jails and prisons in the USA. People need to know this. They treat you worse than an animal, and have no regard for you whatsoever. All you are is a means for them to make money, the corporations that run our jails and prison industrial complex. As an RN I say that it is obvious he needed medical help. He did not get it. Being confined like this killed him

  • Fuck worldstarhiphop

  • Yea, God is the one judge u dnt wanna com across, it is a terrible thing to b handled by the living God wen ur evil

  • This is terrible. I'm flagging this.

    No person should ever go though this, much less have loved ones see something like this happen to them.

  • this is a disgrace you should be sued

  • who ever put this up need to be shot and killed how dare u ever put this harsh shit up it hurts my heart to see anyone treated this why

  • Please take this down he's my former boss I was thier drummer 1985-86 clearly he's suffering from a nervous breakdown from Gerald Levet his brother death PLEASE SOMEBODY TAKE THIS DOWN R.I.P. SEAN & GERALD LEVERT we had great times !!!! DA

  • Don't take it down, the world needs to see this in order for it not to be forgotten, do not brush it under the rug like it never happened.

  • so sick, man, do the man some justice and remove this shameful video, let him rest in peace, and respect his children. PLEASE

  • take this down

    

  • This is sick and disturbing! He was suffering from Anxiety, he wasn't a drug addict or something, a doctor proscribed it to him after his brother (Gered Levert) died. They should have given him the medicine, Xanax withdrawal is just as deadly as illegal drugs and alcohol withdrawal, and had they'd seek proper medical attention for him, he would still be alive today. TAKE THIS VIDEO DOWN! RIP Sean and Gereld Levert <3

  • Please take this video down. Out of respect to Sean and his family.

  • Right that was my late cousin you got in this video man fa real cmon now this shit aint funny

  • HOW THE FUCK CAN PPL LIKE THIS VIDEO

    ITS SAD, AND DEGRADING

  • a news station played a clip of this on the news after it happened

  • Those cops are retards, took them 4ever to tie that shit.

  • Medical should always be called when the chair is used, just for reasons like this. damn!

  • He looked severely dehydrated. No one even offered him water. His mouth looks as dry as sandpaper. I believe he was dead before morning.

  • why don't you be a decent human being and remove this video for the sake of the Levert family.

  • no he posted this for thos ignarent pricks like u to see and yr if his famly see this then its even beter there for they'll never forget the cunts that body baged there famly member

  • This is the saddest thing that I ever seen. This man was in obvious mental crisis and did not need to be restrained. He needed his prescribed medication. May the judgment of God fall on all the guards involved in the mistreatment of Mr. Sean Levert. And God have mercy on the judge and legal system that clear them from any wrongdoing. This is just another example of our corrupt legal system.

  • WHY WOULD YOU EVEN POST THIS??!?!?! ARE YOU SERIOUS?!!??!?!?!? Is this what you want his family to see each time they log onto youtube?

  • They are restraining him but did it ever cross these assholes minds to seek medical attention for him? Something is obviously very wrong here. I have had to restrain aggressive and violent clients when I was working in the medical field and based on what I see here he is nowhere as aggressive as those clients were. I'm talking clients swinging, kicking, spitting, punching and biting. If he was off of his meds the jail is responsible and the incident never would have occurred in the first place.

  • @Zyntax7

    First off, you don't even need a fucking medical professional to help with the problem he had, in fact a medical professional would make this worse because they most likely would not understand the aspects of benzodiazepane withdrawal.

    This man was addicted to benzos. Even if you take benzos as prescribed, you get addicted. Upon stopping benzos you can face life-threatening seizures. To make it worse, he was sobering up from another gaba-ergic drug, called alcohol.

  • @JenkemBOMBS Coroner's report revealed that Sean's death was a direct result of withdrawals from Xanax. The jail would not let him take his prescription. Had they called in medics perhaps they could have avoided having to pay the Levert family the $4 million that they paid in their settlement for his death. A very expensive lesson to learn. They have also changed their policies in accordance to Sean's Law which is named after Sean Levert. A little bit of common sense goes a very long way.

  • smh.. my heart still breakz for the Levert family.. wordz just cant express.. R.I.P. Sean

  • This is so hard to watch, Sean clearly needed medical attention, I can see Prison personnel have not been trained to recognize this or look past their judgments God this breaks my heart... so wrong RIP Sean

  • This is so hard to watch, Sean clearly needed medical attention, I can see Prison personnel have not been trained to recognize this or look past their judgments God this breaks my heart... so wrong RIP Sean <3

  • How did this leak, this should not be on youtube

  • @first i wasn't feeling this, but then i thougtht EDDIE & MARTHA BEING THE PEOPLE(PARENTS) THEY ARE MUST HAVE AGREED TO THIS! TO ENLIGHTEN OTHERS OF THE POSSIBILITIES,AND WE PRAY THAT THEY TRAIN THEIR STAFF, TO REVIEW ONES FILE FOR ANY HEALTH ISSUES, AND THAT THIS DOESN'T HAPPEN AGAIN! GOD BLESS YOU MR & MRS LEVERT!!

  • this is horrible, real cruel

  • OMG..........Anyone with Experience in the Medical field could plainly see this man needed to be sedated ..The man was calling for his Mother..........OMG.what kind of world is this we live in...This was a non violent charge........Someone clearly has blood on there hands..........Can anyone say Karma for me right quick.............

  • who ever put this on here is a heartless person who needs to go some where and pray.... smdh this is so wrong that man has a wife and kids..why would someone want to watch their love one go threw this.... sad get a life.. better yet im going to pray for you....

  • @mztoot

    dude its alll over the webb .. chill cuz its like everywhere ! not just on youtube

    R.i.p Sean Levert !

  • I don't think this should be on here. This is private and probably extremely hard for his family members. This aint right.

  • Illuminati wants to silence all who has talent or make them join them.

  • hes just trying to get committed into the insane asylum and away from general population

  • @youngrelleus19 fuck what u talkn bout nigga flat the fuck out that man is deas nigga he wasnt goin to prison stupid ass

  • @youngrelleus19 Ya think!!! So when he stopped breathing what was he trying to do? How would you like to die with a bunch of heartless white faces staring at you?

  • jail does not give you your meds like they should. I should know when I was in jail i suffered because they didnt give me my meds. So please sue the hell out of them and and I hope you do because they are assholes in jail and they treat you like shit. And I was only in there for traffic tickets so to the levert family sue them and get a good lawyer and contact the news stations and get as many people involed as you can and dont let anyone tell you that you dont have a case because you do!

  • This is sad.. But it doesn't lool like his mouth is matching the sound of the video.. whats that about.. ???

  • @clennine the video is slow

  • Its sad that he died. But I don't see what they are doing to him that is making him scream like that. It really seems like he was loosing it. Look at how he was looking around fo recognition. He is obviously upset about something. Did his mother die too?? I am confused.

  • @MsCorporateAmerica man i have anxiety, getting tied down in that state would be terror

  • This is so sad to watch, who ever he was saying that kill his mother needs to check that out. I see that Sean needed some help, but it looks like the straps was too tight from what I see. So said to see this happen, and no it not funny, i couldnt crack a smile on this.

  • 3:00 The shits??? Man, this aint funny, but I can't help but laugh at it. The family is suppose to be suing for some kind of negligence on the C/O's part, right? From what I can see they are restraining him, but was there some kind of medication that he was suppose to be on beforehand? And the jail was refusing him his meds? That's the only reason that I can see the family suing the city of Cleveland behind this shit.

  • as a retired corrections ofc, its obvious to me that he is experiencing a mental health issue in which he needs to be restrained for his own protection. I have seen many men in the same condition and when left unattended or when the chance arrises, they do something which the family reqrets. as to the why of the taping of this. an earlier poster commented that they was killing him or strapping him in (its called a restraint chair). when force is used it safeguard all involved

  • @hardluckkid Question FROM SOMEONE WHO ALSO HAS A PSYCHIATRIC DISABILITY AND TOOK THE SAME MEDICATION AS SEAN. Since he had a diagnosed psychiatric condition - Anxiety Disorder - AND WAS TAKING XANAX AN ANTI ANXIETY MED - prescribed by his Psychiatrist and he BROUGHT HIS MEDICATION TO JAIL WITH HIM THEN WHY WAS HE TAKEN OFF HIS MEDICINE BY THE JAIL & DENIED IMMEDIATE MEDICAL / PSYCHIATRIC CARE? WE ARE WITNESSING MEDICATION WITH DRAWL WHICH WAS A MAJOR FACTOR IN HIS DEATH. UNTHINKABLE!

  • What did they do wrong ? Looks like their just restraining him so he won't hurt himself. They do everybody like that who acts like that. Looks like he's under the influence of some type of drugs or something. Who and why are they video taping him ? This is so sad.

  • This is sooooo disturbing!!!

  • they killing him ..or what...strappin him up ....he got strapped and died...how can this happen ...for child support order they lock u up like this...this is some bullshit...

  • @KELLYTV08 Welcome to America where you get PUNISHED for having kids

  • FUCK THA LAW

  • What is this a video of? What's happening here?
