a corrections officer in the Camden County jail pushing an inmate into a glass door before the inmate loses consciousness.

The Georgia Bureau of Investigation (GBI) said the officer was arrested after the incident. And it wasn’t the first time a corrections officer at the same jail has been arrested for abusing inmates in the last year.

Camden County Sheriff Jim Proctor said in a statement Tuesday that Camden County corrections officers get more training than the state requires, but a local activist said the incident is not isolated and the jail needs to change its ways.

An 11-second video from July 3 captures Camden County Sergeant Corrections Officer Joshua Beauchamp walking an inmate to a glass door that led to an isolation cell. Then, after words were exchanged, Beauchamp pushed the inmate into the door, the inmate hit his head and collapsed, video showed.
