The first thing Stacy Koon either said or thought when he heard there was a video of the incident was “good, we can use it for training purposes.” What most of the public saw was highly edited. The first jury saw the same thing and knew the officers did nothing wrong.
I believe the first jury saw the officers as following department guidelines and standard operating procedures, and therefore not guilty. They were just doing what the LAPD had trained them to do, and therefore nothing wrong.
However if it takes a tasering, 6 kicks, and 50+ blows from 4+ officers on a scene before they are able to handcuff a suspect, then something is wrong with the handcuffing technique.
