Another delay in the trial of a former Elkhart police officer.

The former officer, Joshua Titus, was accused of beating a suspect who was handcuffed to a chair, in January 2018, with fellow officer, Cory Newland.

Officials say that the assault was captured by surveillance video.

The trial was set to start on Monday, but is now rescheduled for April 17.

The reschedule for Titus comes after Newland entered a guilty plea earlier this month.

Titus is charged with violating the civil rights of the inmate.

I wish we spent as much effort preserving the rights of the January 6th political prisoners as we do the actual criminals like the one this officer allegedly hit.
