Waller County Releases New Video of Sandra Bland in an Attempt to Dispel Rumors

Waller County Texas Officials have released hours of jail footage of Sandra Bland in order to negate the idea that Sandra Bland was dead before she was brought to jail.

The video shows Bland being brought into the jail in the dress she was arrested in. She then changes into a orange jumpsuit before her mugshot is taken. After, she can be seen making a phone call.

The next day, Bland meets with a judge and makes several more phone calls.

"The reason we're doing this is because of the misinformation that has been put out -- both through social media and even through mainstream media, that has led to the rumors that Sandra Bland was in some way deceased, or harmed, or not well when she was brought in to the Waller County Jail," Waller County Judge Trey Duhon told reporters.

"We are under cyberattack by individuals like the group called Anonymous, who has claimed that Sandra Bland is deceased in the mugshot. You will see video here today that will show that she was alive and well when her mugshot was taken," said Duhon.
