Staff Abuse Leads to Patient Death

A mental health worker is facing serious charges after a patient died during a violent restraint incident at Sonora Behavioral Health. Surveillance footage shows the employee, Bryce Nolan Coleman, aggressively shoving the patient, Bluesky Thomas, multiple times — even after he was sedated — leading to fatal injuries including a broken neck and liver lacerations. The facility, already under fire for 24 inspections and a $10K fine in the past three years, has terminated Coleman and pledged full cooperation with the ongoing investigation, while offering condolences to the family.
