Richard Claybert (Alberta, ONT: 2007) is a hearing impaired man. He brought a camper to a neighborhood party where he intended to sleep for the night. The police were called because of complaints about the noise. The police told Claybert, who was intoxicated, to drive home. As Claybert began to leave, the police told him to come back. He could not hear the police. The police officers then knocked him to the ground and kicked him repeatedly in the face.
