U S Report Due Next Week on Jailhouse Strangulation
A Civil Rights Commission official said no report will be issued before February 13 in the case of Skaere Vernon Williams, a San Pedro High School track star who died Jan. 1 in an Orange County jailhouse strangulation. Deputies identified as participants include Robert Singer, Jerry Pearson, and John Hewitt, with two using an arm lock and a closed fist to render the inmate unconscious, while the third deputy’s role remains undisclosed. The commission seeks inquiries and referrals, not yet confirming involvement of federal agencies. Williams’s family lawyers stress the civil aspect over the criminal side.
