Jackson, a former White House physician with a reputation as a hothead, apologized for his profanity but defended his anger at officers.
Bodycam footage shows Amarillo congressman Ronny Jackson arguing with deputies and handcuffed while trying to help a teen at a rodeo on July 29, 2023. The Texas Department of Public Safety released the video Aug. 14. Only portions of it have audio.It shows the incompetence of the authorities and their complete disregard for the young girl in distress.
“I did ask you to get back. And you did not get back,” the trooper is heard saying. Referring to the two deputies who briefly cuffed Jackson, he added, “Everybody here asked you to get back.” His vast U.S. House district stretches from Denton to the Panhandle. White Deer is 40 miles northeast of Amarillo.“He was pushing us to get past to you. So, that’s whenever he got cuffed,” said Sheriff’s Deputy China Alexander.
The day after the incident, and again Friday night, Jackson’s office maintained he had not been drinking, and accused officers of mishandling the situation. Alexander reported hearing Trooper Young tell Jackson to back away from the girl when paramedics arrived.The video shows Jackson reluctantly standing up and moving away from the girl. The two deputies — Alexander and Deputy Colton Daniels — put themselves between the trooper and Jackson, who quickly “had become irate and was screaming obscenities,” Alexander wrote.Alexander recounted that Jackson threatened the trooper, screaming “I’m going to beat that motherf---er’s ass.
