Puff piece. Designed to get you to shed a tear or two.
That being true, did the cop go too far?
Yeah. He did.
Bad cop. No doughnut for you.
You know if the cop had been white, we’d all be accused of racism. I wonder what excuse they will use now.
I am told we must consider whether the cop got home safely....
Butt down, Don’t Drag!!!
Well....at least he didn’t carry her like a 6 pack.
Give him his props...that floor be shinin’.
“Deputy Anthony Pulitano added in a supplemental report that Johnson asked Rios twice if she would walk on her own accord.”
She was given a choice. She chose wrong.
If he was white, either it would be the end of his career or he’d wind up walking a cleanup beat at the dog park.
Matthew 24:10 At that time many will turn away from the faith and will betray and hate each other, 11 and many false prophets will appear and deceive many people. 12 Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold, 13 but the one who stands firm to the end will be saved. 14 And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.
We don’t get to see what preceded the shiny floor ride to the cell, but I’m sure there was some swearing at the officers and/or spitting at them and/or swinging at them to wind up where she did.
If the person was physically disabled, would a wheelchair be available? That is the most callous and disrespectful treatment of a prisoner I’ve ever witnessed. Of course, I have not witnessed any prisoners being led out of the courthouse before. How did they get her out of the building? Totally disgusting.
I question the integrity and legality of the attorney, Bill Gelin, in providing this video to the public
The two uniformed officers pictured could have carried her away—with less squabble.
One evening, a deputy sheriff friend had arrested four burglars himself, then transported them to be fingerprinted. Without sufficient officers in the lobby, the officer tied the four together with a long rope. The elevator took off automatically, and two went up, and two were still left on the lobby floor. While nothing bad happened, sufficient officers during the evening shift would have made the situation much less awkward!
without seeing the tape or being there, I’d hesitate to judge here. I’ve worked with the mentally disturbed, and sometimes four point restraint is the only way to keep the cops and those around them safe.
So, would you offer to hold her upper body up and get bitten or get a head butt into your sternum? The alternative would be three cops to get her out of there.
Once I was reprimanded in an ER for having cops restrain a patient who threw a phone at me...presumably I should have sweet talked him until the psychiatrist came.... Six months later, a similar case came to that ER and ended up stabbing a few folks waiting to be seen.
