The Inyo County Sheriff’s Office outlined how “a complete and thorough investigation will be conducted on use of force” regarding a July 24 incident that ended with the hospitalization of a Bishop man, according to an ICSO release Tuesday.
Accusations of law enforcement brutality were made following the circulation of a video on social media showing a violent struggle between two Inyo County Sheriff deputies and George Barlow III, 32, at about 2 a.m. Saturday, July 24. Barlow’s pit bull was killed during the incident and Barlow has been hospitalized.

A brutal beating by two police officers of an Indigenous man in California near the Nevada border has left more questions than answers.
Just after 2 a.m. Saturday, police came across an “agitated” man with his dog in an empty parking lot in Bishop, California. Now the man, George Barlow, III, Paiute, age 32, reportedly is in intensive care, and his dog is dead.
Police had received a call about violation of a restraining order. No one linked to the call was found. But the two responding officers did see Barlow yelling outside a closed gas station on the Bishop Paiute Reservation.

Late at night beneath a star-studded sky, surrounded by the Sierra Nevada and the White Mountains, circles of mourners sang and stamped their feet in the dust. The cry dance honored Harry Williams,
Nüümü (Bishop Paiute) elder and internationally recognized expert in the ancestral water systems of
Owens Valley.
In his lifetime, Williams was responsible for recovering knowledge of his tribe’s traditional irrigation networks and water practices, strengthening the Paiute’s claims for water rights in Owens Valley. His work as an activist for the health of his people and their homelands left a lasting impact on his community and on water management in the region.
