I live in Virginia. I was charged with a DUI and during precessing I slipped and fell on city police property. During the night in jail I asked to see a Dr. and was denied until morning the next day. I then was seen by the Dr. and he said there was nothing wrong with me. The day after I was released I went the the Hospital and x-rays came back negative, for the next 4 weeks I had extreme pain on my left side in the rib area. I then noticed a knot where the pain is, I then went back to the Hospital. Come to find out a rib was fractured. Do I have any recourse against the police and/or plea bargining power to get the charge reduced? thanks much.
