Ex-Inmate Sues Jail Nurse For Painful Erection
Dawud Yaduallah has claimed that he suffered for 55 hours before finally getting hospital treatment to relieve the problem in his pants.
The 43-year-old former prisoner has said that nurse Judith Lovelace's diagnostic bungle left him "irreparably injured" with "severe damage to his penis, including erectile dysfunction, inability to ejaculate and pain during sexual intercourse."
And, according to court papers, he is now seeking a prosthesis "to possibly restore some sexual function," and has said that "his medical problems have caused difficulty in his marriage."
While his Manhattan federal court suit doesn't specify damages, it has asked for stiff punishment for Lovelace's "cruel and uncivilized conduct."
Yaduallah, a career criminal formerly known as David Hanley, has said that he was imprisoned at the Downstate Correctional Facility in Fishkill when his daily dosage of Seroquel was boosted by 25 percent in March 2006.
The side effects of the anti-psychotic drug caused persistent and painful erections, and three days later Yaduallah went to the infirmary after more than 14 hours at full staff.
It is alleged that Lovelace, 65, did nothing "other than telling Mr. Yaduallah to apply ice to his penis."
Yaduallah's attorney called Lovelace's inaction "an (inexcusable) violation of this man's civil rights."
