KXLH reports that Jefferson County and the Department of Homeland Security found no evidence supporting Audemio Orozco-Ramirez's report of rape in the county jail. Shahid Haque disputed the independence and adequacy of those investigations, noting that his client had not been re-interviewed, had not seen the evidence, and was still living with the effects of the alleged assault.
This coverage records the conflicting accounts that would carry into the federal civil case. Shahid's concern was not simply disagreement with the result, but whether agencies responsible for the detention facility could impartially investigate their own conduct.
