WWE's Jerry Lawler Sues Tennessee Sheriff Over Son's Death
-- In the suit, Jerry says he personally met with the Sheriff while Brian was still in custody to explain that his son needed help for several issues ... including drug and alcohol treatment.
Lawler claims when the officer came back from his garbage run, he saw Brian in the same position and asked a coworker to help check on him. That's when they realized Brian had hanged himself and made rescue attempts. Lawler believes if the jail was properly prepared -- and the correctional officer would have checked on Brian before taking out the trash -- Brian would be alive today. -- TMZ Sports has obtained a copy of the lawsuit filed in Tennessee, which shows Lawler is demanding $3 MILLION in damages.
But, Jerry claims his death could have easily been prevented -- if officials would have followed proper protocol when dealing with a person they KNEW had a history of suicide attempts., tells TMZ Sports ... Brian -- who suffered from depression -- told officers during his 2018 arrest that he had attempted suicide in 2013 and 2015., officials at the Hardeman County Sheriff's Dept. made no effort to protect him from himself, Rosenblum says.
