"You have a compression neuropathy of a distal branch of the ulnar nerve of your left hand, which could result from handcuff compression at the wrist"
Restraints Can Be Deadly Force
If an officer over-tightens, fails to double-lock, or leaves handcuffs on a person for an extended period of time, the person can be severely injured. This type of injury is usually referred to as "handcuff neuropathy." Handcuff neuropathy, similar to carpal tunnel syndrome, is damage to the person's radial, ulnar, and/or median nerves caused by the compression of the handcuffs. This nerve damage can manifest itself as pain in the wrist, hand, and/or fingers; loss of strength and weakness of grip; numbness; loss of flexation; diminished light touch sensation; and tingling sensation in fingers(2). This nerve damage can be long term or permanent. Since such an injury is usually classified as "serious bodily harm", it can be argued that the officer used deadly force.
Deadly force is force that is intended or likely to cause death or serious bodily harm.(3) Serious bodily harm or serious physical injury is an injury that creates a substantial risk of death; causes serious, permanent disfigurement; or results in long-term loss or impairment of the functioning of any bodily member or organ.(4) Since the improper use or application of handcuffs can cause long- term loss or impairment of the functioning of the hands, this is a serious bodily injury. If the officer knew, or should have known, that his/her manner of application of the handcuffs could cause serious injury, and the person was seriously injured by the application of the handcuffs, then the officer has used deadly force on the subject. If the officer's use of deadly force was not "objectively reasonable" then the use of deadly force was excessive and in violation of the person's Fourth Amendment rights.
