Veteran Jonathan Montano was brutally beaten to death by VA police in Loma Linda, CA for trying to leave the hospital after waiting 4 hours with a needle in his arm.
His widow recently filed suit. The couple had been married for 44 years.
“The summoned VA Police Department police officers then stopped Jonathan Montano from leaving the VA Hospital in Loma Linda, by tackling him to the floor, slamming his head on the floor, and kneeing and stomping on his neck, and otherwise brutalizing and restraining him,” the lawsuit said.

I hope this is not true!
HANG EM…
I think it’s time to replace h.s.a as the police for v.a. I remember one cop at the menlo park facility used to hide in the bushes to catch a vet smoking in an area that was out of bounds and another time I was forced to leave palo alto hospital after spending all day trying to get a friend to the detox there on public transportation from san jose it was the middle of the night no busses were running from the hospital so I had to walk miles to get to where I could catch a bus
And to think, if they had allowed him to leave they could have cleared another appointment! What the hello were they thinking? Oh wait, its the government they do not think! Idiots have taken over the government! Obamacare is going to solve our problems, right? The next time YOU vote for President make sure the person is American with American ideas and understands that we have a constitution and knows how to balance a check book. My suggestion is don’t put another Democrat back in their for a long time. They do better when the country isn’t in trillions of dollars of debt.( NO, I am not a republican)
Gestopo tactics
There is no reason for this kind of brutality!!!!!
If this is true the VA cops should be hung by the neck until they are dead
I HAVE PUT IT ON FACEBOOK BEFORE THE COP’S ARE TURNING INTO THE GESTAPO SO YOU BETTER WATCH WHAT YOU DO EVEN IF YOUR A GOOD PERSON.
I understand that police need backup.I know that sometimes people do get out of hand, the VA is slow. Yet why is a older man knocked down and beatup when all he was doing was leaving the Hospital. Even if Montano was yelling because of the wait time is no reason to beat him up, causing his untimely death.
I agree roy
