Nurul Amin Shah Alam was a Rohingya refugee from Burma.
He had been granted refugee status by the US government.
Blind and speaking no English, in February 2025 he accidentally wandered into a neighbor's yard.
She called the police, who tasered him, beat him up, and arrested him.
After being held in jail for over a year, he was finally released on bail after agreeing to plead guilty to trespassing and possessing a weapon (a curtain rod he used as a walking stick).
