“He can’t go anywhere,” the 29-year-old’s dad said, speaking of his son’s paralysis. “Why do you have him cuffed to the bed?”
“I hate it that he was laying in that bed with the handcuff onto the bed,” his father, also named Jacob Blake, said Thursday.
The younger Blake, 29, was shot multiple times by police Sunday in Kenosha, Wisconsin, and is paralyzed from the waist down. The younger Jacob Blake told his father he thought he could feel pain in his legs, but his father isn’t sure if the pain is actually coming from his legs.
The Kenosha Police Department, Kenosha County District Attorney’s Office and Wisconsin Department of Justice have not responded to requests for information.
