A mom is suing the City of Santa Fe, Texas, after police handcuffed her and held her into a bed of fire ants, her attorney claims.
Taylor Rogers says she was "tortured" by Santa Fe Police Department officers in 2021 when they arrested her after she reportedly tried to make an illegal turn in a school parking lot.
She says officers pulled her from her car, with her 9-year-old son in the vehicle, and held her down into the anthill.
"Ants are on my face, ants are getting on my face, please!" Ms Rogers could be heard yelling in a police bodycam video shared with KHOU 11. "How can y'all do this? Ants are on my face! Please let go!"
