Why didn’t the cop pick the woman up and put her in the car? Didn’t the sheriff say that the taser is not meant to be used as a punitive measure? These cops are working for someone else now..don’t cry for them.

Is there not a limit to how many times a person should be tased????????????????????????????????????????????

It must be more than 19 times.

Two members of a small town police force in this area tased a young man 19 times who jumped or fell from an overpass as he was thrashing about on the ground of the shoulder of the road below.

The stated reason for the tasering was that they did not want him to reach the roadway and be hit by a vehicle before medical personel arrived.

After an investigation by the Missouri Highway Patrol they were cleared of any wrong doing.
