436 U.S. 658, 694 (1978). The panel held that there was
substantial evidence of repeated constitutional violations, of
the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department awareness of
those violations, and of its failure to take any remedial action.
The panel concluded that legal precedent permitted the jury
to infer that the Sheriff’s Department had adopted a custom
or practice of condoning excessive force and that this culture
of violence and impunity proximately caused the injuries
inflicted on appellees.
