Supreme Court Orders Release of Injured Prisoner

A Supreme Court judge has ordered the release of Carlos Butler, a wheelchair-bound man with severe spinal injuries from multiple gunshot wounds, ruling his imprisonment without proper medical care violates his constitutional rights to life and dignity. Unable to control his bladder or bowels and reliant on others for basic care, Butler’s current prison cell lacks even running water or adequate bedding. The judge emphasized that keeping him incarcerated would constitute inhuman treatment and recommended prison upgrades for disabled inmates. While not bail, Butler must post a $5,000 bond and report weekly to police, with his main constitutional case still scheduled for July 2nd.
