Stanley Wilson Jr. died at Metropolitan State Hospital on Feb. 1 at the age of 40.

His family is seeking more than $45 million in damages from the Los Angeles County.

The ex-Detroit Lions cornerback was a victim of excessive force by LA law enforcement, his family’s attorney alleged during a news conference Tuesday.

Photos of wounds to Wilson Jr.'s head appear to show he was either kicked or stomped, lawyer John Carpenter said.
