Convicted child molester Martin Anthony Eck, who is suing Jasper County Sheriff Archie Dunn and county commissioners for $10 million, claiming his dental needs were not taken care of during his stay in county facilities, has 20 days to tell a U. S. District Court judge why his case should continue or it will be dismissed.
The county's lawyers on June 10 filed suggestions in support of their motion for summary judgment and cited a persuasive witness who bolstered their arguments...Martin Anthony Eck.
In his deposition, according to court documents, Eck admitted:
-the jail nurse told him the county would provide transportation to a dentist of his choosing is his family could arrange and pay for the visit.
-he did not give the nurse the name of a dentist.
-he was provided with Tylenol and Ora-Gel to help manage his pain
-while he has been in state prison, no dentist has told him that his teeth are rotting and must be pulled.
-he never noticed any redness or swelling in his jaw while he was at the Jasper County Jail.
-the jail nurse told him the county would provide transportation to a dentist of his choosing if his family could arrange and pay for the visit.
