Description

In April 2019, the star of a headlining show at the Oregon Shakespeare Festival went out to dinner with donors – then drinks with friends in downtown Ashland. Tony Sancho was intoxicated when police encountered him. Instead of detox, he ended up in county jail for more than 10 hours, handcuffed to a metal grate for hours. For nearly a minute a sheriff’s deputy pinned his knee to Sancho’s neck.
The Oregonian/OregonLive's Noelle Crombie talks about her recent story examining Sancho's arrest and how it reverberated across Ashland and the Oregon Shakespeare Festival's broader acting community.
