## Resource

New CCTV footage has shattered the official story of Allan Marshall’s death in 2015, revealing him calmly walking through HMP Edinburgh with three guards — clean, topless, and showing no signs of distress or misconduct. Contradicting claims that he was covered in excrement and behaving erratically, the video shows Marshall being led to a shower room, not restrained immediately. The restraint, involving up to seventeen officers, occurred 20 minutes later outside the shower. Marshall’s family believes he was targeted for unpaid fines and breach of peace charges, possibly as punishment. Experts reviewing the footage were stunned by his calm demeanor, questioning the need for force. Officers involved received immunity — later admitted to be a mistake — and legal action followed, including a human rights case. Police Scotland and the Crown Office paid compensation last year, and the Scottish Prison Service admitted in 2024 that Marshall’s death was unlawful — ten years after the fact — while offering an apology. A judge is set to rule on damages next month. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
