But the courtroom turned somber as Dustin Collier, representing the Benson family, described the prolonged and fatal restraint of Max, who vomited, urinated on himself, and ultimately went into cardiac arrest before emergency services were called\u2014nearly 30 minutes after he lost consciousness.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cMax\u2019s unimaginable suffering continued unabated,\u201d Collier told the court, his voice breaking. \u201cBy the time paramedics arrived, Max was no longer breathing at all&#8230; They let him die in their hands.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Max died the following day at UC Davis Medical Center in Sacramento. A lawsuit filed by the family alleges that the boy had spat at another student, triggering the restraint. Wohlwend and the others reportedly held Max prone for 95 minutes\u2014well beyond accepted standards\u2014leading to his brain death.<\/p>\n<p>Judge Ralphs, who was not involved in the earlier phases of the case, said he had not reviewed evidence or discovery files. The case, delayed for years, originated from a 2018 El Dorado County grand jury indictment and followed an investigation by the California Department of Education, which concluded that school staff used \u201cunreasonable and unnecessary force.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Guiding Hands School, which served special needs children across Sacramento Valley school districts\u2014including Elk Grove, Folsom Cordova, and Davis\u2014closed permanently in January 2019 after its certification was revoked. Benson\u2019s death prompted legislative changes in California, banning the use of prone restraints in schools.<\/p>\n<p>Should the judge ultimately reject the current plea deal, the case may proceed to a full trial on the original felony charges.<\/p>\n<p>Attorneys for the defendants will have the opportunity to argue in favor of the plea agreement during the August hearing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A Placerville judge may toss a plea deal for three school staffers charged in Max Benson&#8217;s 2018 death. \u201cThey let him die in their hands,\u201d said the family&#8217;s lawyer<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":8629,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jnews-multi-image_gallery":[],"jnews_single_post":{"format":"standard","override":[{"template":"7","parallax":"1","layout":"no-sidebar-narrow","sidebar":"default-sidebar","second_sidebar":"default-sidebar","sticky_sidebar":"1","share_position":"float","share_float_style":"share-normal","show_share_counter":"1","show_view_counter":"1","show_featured":"1","show_post_meta":"1","show_post_author":"1","show_post_author_image":"1","show_post_date":"1","post_date_format":"default","post_date_format_custom":"Y\/m\/d","show_post_category":"1","post_reading_time_wpm":"300","post_calculate_word_method":"str_word_count","show_zoom_button":"0","zoom_button_out_step":"2","zoom_button_in_step":"3","show_post_tag":"1","show_popup_post":"1","number_popup_post":"1","show_author_box":"1","show_post_related":"1","show_inline_post_related":"1"}],"image_override":[{"single_post_thumbnail_size":"crop-500","single_post_gallery_size":"crop-500"}],"trending_post_position":"meta","trending_post_label":"Trending","sponsored_post_label":"Sponsored by","disable_ad":"0","subtitle":"El Dorado Superior Court delays sentencing, cites disturbing testimony in 2018 student death at Guiding Hands School"},"jnews_primary_category":[],"jnews_social_meta":[],"jnews_override_counter":{"view_counter_number":"0","share_counter_number":"0","like_counter_number":"0","dislike_counter_number":"0"},"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-9190","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Judge Signals Rejection of Plea Deal in Max Benson Restraint Death Case - Placerville NewsWire<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Judge may reject plea in Max Benson&#039;s death after emotional courtroom testimony;
