Staff at the Mayo Clinic alerted a JSO officer who was on site working an off-duty shift to the injuries found on Allison Fierro’s face. Fierro said she got them after being pushed to the ground by Duval County jailers. A detective with JSO’s integrity unit was dispatched to the hospital, and from her hospital bed Fierro described to him being slammed to the floor. When her face hit the floor, she heard something “crack” but was told to “shut up” when she asked to see medical personnel, she told the detective. Details of the call can be seen in the card filled out by JSO, above.
