Obviously, the officer was in the wrong and used excessive force for reasons not stated in this article; the victim’s Lawyer seems to think s/he can make the case...in this case.
I’m just curious as to WHAT landed her in jail in the first place. That part of the story is MISSING.
You know...so I make sure it never happens to ME when I have a Martini or two IN MY OWN HOME on a weekend evening and the cops show up to haul ME (or you!) off to jail.
Just being pro-active. Heaven forfend we be safe in our own homes doing whatever the heck we want to when we want to on our OWN tax-revenue-generating-mortgaged properties!
Oops! My Conserva-Tarian bent must be showing. :)
She was just drunk when they seized her from a private residence.
No assertion or charge that she was assaulting anyone, or trespassing.
