Please expand on your comment. Mistreatment or discrimination directed against disabled persons who are arrested or jailed is illegal and can be the subject of a civil rights lawsuit. Requiring the arrestee or inmate to perform some task they are unable to do, for example push their own wheelchair, could be a constitutional violation. I would like to hear your story in much greater detail. Watch out for legal time limits.
